Gevrey Chambertin VV, Heresztyn-Mazzini 2018

Tasting Notes

50% whole bunch, 30% new wood. Dark centre with fresher purple rim. More fruit than stems on the nose, indeed the ripe fruit swells beautifully across the palate, in a bouncy dark cherry style, reaching out towards a long supple finish infused with the briary notes of the whole bunches. Quite long.

Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy, November 2019

Florence Heresztyn and Simon Mazzini use grapes from five different plots to produce this appealing, well-balanced village Gevrey, fermenting the result with 50% whole bunches and ageing it in 30% new wood. In keeping with the domaine's preference for elegance and poise over power, this has lovely brightness, some subtle spices and juicy summer berry flavours. A delight to drink young, but will age well too. (Drink between 2021-2028)
