2023 Gevrey Chambertin Vieilles Vignes

The 2023 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes includes 50% whole bunch fruit and comes from several parcels in the south of the appellation. It has a well-defined, slightly introverted bouquet compared to the Village, focused and delineated despite some reduction. The palate is medium-bodied with a little more body than the Village, displaying ripe black cherries and strawberry confit . It is a little closed on the finish but one can sense the energy in this cuvée. Give this three or four years in bottle.
