The Gevrey-Chambertin is produced from 20 different parcels (3 hectares total). It displays aromas of liquorice, ripe blackberry and red fruits flavors. After a few months of cellaring it reveals deeper aromas and spicy nuances. It is rich, full and round in the mouth with good length.
Excellent with steak, game and soft cheeses.
"Black cherries, smoky herbs, leather, and floral notes all shine in the 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin, a beautifully balanced, medium-bodied effort. It has ripe tannins, a layered, supple mouthfeel, and a great finish. All destemmed and aged 16 months in a mix of new barrels and tank, it should shine for at least a decade."
- Jeb Dunnuck (Importer Highlight: Fran Kysela ; July 2024), 92 pts

"This wine opens with a subtle but smoky note of Morello cherry. The palate continues in this aromatic, beautifully tart vein, letting freshness lift the fruit but also exposing a dense, concentrated core of tannic firmness and concentration. This wine is elegant, vivid and oh so juicy. - ANNE KREBIEHL MW"
"The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has a clean, rounded, pastille-like bouquet with vivid red cherry and strawberry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, moderate acidity, but it feels a little simple towards the finish. Drink over the next 5 to 8 years. - Neal Martin"
"This is lush, showing black cherry, blackberry and spice flavors, with a beam of acidity and mineral. Remains persistent, with spice and mineral notes unfolding on the long aftertaste. Best from 2017 through 2027. 1,250 cases made. –BS"
"A lightly flavored Burgundy showing red cherry, a bit of red plum, and garrigue. Quite dry on the mid-palate but elegant nonetheless. All destemmed fruit, aged in a combination of new and used oak for 12 months."
