Gevrey Chambertin, Domaine Berthaut 2017

Tasting Notes

A ripe and once again exceptionally fresh nose consists of various dark berries, earth and plenty of sauvage character. The solidly constituted medium weight flavors possess a fleshy and round mid-palate that contrasts somewhat with the moderately austere and compact finish. Still, this will probably be reasonably accessible after only a few years of bottle age.

Aromas of sweet red berries, spices, grilled meats and rich soil introduce the 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Village, a medium-bodied wine with a firm but fine-grained chassis of tannin that I suspect will flesh out by the time it's bottled; right now, it appears a little austere.
