Gevrey Chambertin Champeaux, Domaine Tawse 2020

Tasting Notes

Mild reduction masks everything but background nuances of spice and earth. The rich and relatively full-bodied flavors possess fine mid-palate density as well as a taut muscularity while displaying solid length on the dusty and youthfully austere finale. This will need to develop better depth to merit the upper end of my predicted range. (Drink starting 2030)

Allen Meadows, Burghound.com (85), January 2022

30% whole bunch, 50% new wood, two new barrels in four. Bright purple of medium depth, quite elegant, this is a reasonably fine-boned style of Champeaux, floral with a little barrel toast in the background. Not too powerful yet very attractive.
