Gevrey Chambertin, Les Cazetiers, 1er Cru, 2012

Suave, ripe and floral, the most open and generous of Bruno Clair’s wines; lush, sweet but lively with fresh flavours of kirsch, griotte, strawberry and loganberry. Alluring and seductive. A first rate Gevrey Premier Cru vineyard high up on the slope next door to Clos-St.-Jacques, whilst there is a similar aromatic quality to the wines of its neighbour, the taste profile is very different, with suaver, rounder fruit coming thanks to the white clay soils found here.
