Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France
Really beautiful nose, underwhelming in the mid-pal/finish right now. Screaming acid, a healthy chunk of tannin makes it feel a little uneven. A treat nonetheless.

Wow! First time I’ve tried this producer. Brilliant! Not the most elegant style but very true to its terroir and in perfect maturity. Want to get more of this!

good stuff though not “sauvage,” but nice secondary Burgundy.

Nov 25th, 2017friend had the wine recently and couldn't get over how good it was. He's right. Great acidity that is integrated well, ripe dark cherry fruit, creamy texture. Very sauvage. The fruit is very intense, cherry essence and the nose is powerful and also intense--just like the wine. No mushrooms, but there is a little sous bois. Would have called it 93 or 96, really good middle age red Burgundy. I like it. Rated 1 on the Zanotti binary system, meaning worth drinking.

Monster of a wine, still very young, lots of acidity and tannins to shed. Feral beast, but a great one!
