Produced from three lieux-dits, including a bit of Premier Cru Bel Air. All of the fruit is located in fairly cool spots, giving a wine with somewhat dark fruit and a hint of violets on the nose, along with firm tannins allied to a silky, supple texture on the palate. Lovely precision and definition for a village-level wine.

Once again strong reduction dominates the underlying fruit. The succulent and round, indeed even fleshy and plump, tighten up somewhat on the moderately austere and focused finale. I like the complexity and more should develop with a few years of cellaring.

The 2019 GevreyChambertin Village, from three lieux-dits, has a strict, rather backward nose that refused to "come out and play". The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy black fruit, a nice touch of bitterness on the finish. It will need a year in bottle before it begins to entertain drinkability. -- Neal Martin
