Gevrey Chambertin Jeunes Rois, Domaine Duroché 2016

Tasting Notes

Here the wood treatment is a bit more generous and includes a whiff of menthol on the liqueur-like dark berry fruit-suffused nose. The medium weight flavors are notably bigger, richer, denser and more powerful while possessing a velvety mouthfeel as well as outstanding depth and persistence on the youthfully austere finale. This mildly rustic effort is a classic Gevrey and offers 1er level quality. Drink 2023 onwards.

Juicy and sweet and charming. Accessible with purple fruit flavours. Not that much spread of flavour on the end. Fine but not a standout. Drink between 2022-2028
