Gevrey Chambertin, Domaine Coquard Loison-Fleurot 2016

Tasting Notes

The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Villages also comes from three vineyards and is matured in one-third new oak. This has an impressive bouquet like the Morey-Saint-Denis, with delineated red berry fruit and fine mineralité considering this is only a village cru. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannin and well-judged acidity, dipping a little toward the finish but still equipped with fine detail and precision. Excellent, albeit maybe earlier drinking than the Morey-Saint-Denis. Drink 2019-2027.

Cask sample. Mid purplish crimson. Dark-red fruit. Firmer, more compact tannins than in the Chambolle. Dark-fruited and very direct and, like the Chambolle, very pure. Savoury, long finish.
