A red that is firm and tight with dried citrus and strawberry character. Medium to full body. Fresh finish. Nutty, and lightly bitter. Drink now.

The 2013 Gevrey-Chambertin was missing fruit intensity on the nose and consequently feels a little anonymous. The palate is better, with more presence than the aromatics, grippy black fruit tinged with marmalade, but it just lacks finesse on the finish. There are superior Gevrey Village to this in 2013.

TASTING NOTES: Intense, perfumed bouquet with fruit aromas and an animal touch. Nice structure and lovely fleshiness. Good ageing potential.
