Arguably the most significant village in the region, Gevrey Chambertin marks the start of a line of communes producing truly fine Burgundy. Gevrey Chambertin itself produces over two thirds of the Cote de Nuits Grand Crus, 8 in total. The styles of these Grand Crus are extremely varied; the wines of the Chambertin and Clos de Beze vineyards are rich and full bodied while those of Charmes and Mazoyeres are extremely delicate. There are also many fine Premier Cru sites, some such as Clos St Jacques surpassing many of the Grand Crus in quality.
Tasting notes: “A subtle floral hint adds nuance to the ripe dark berry fruit and warm earth aromas that complement the delicious, balanced and intense medium-bodied flavors that possess a subtle minerality and lovely finishing punch.”
