    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note
    Denis Mortet, Gevrey Chambertin, 1er Cru, 2014

    Moderately savoury but very elegant fine dark fruits allied to sense of sappy energy that keeps this lively and fine. Lithe tannins underpin an impressive combination of complex dark and red fruits and a dash of saline minerality. A blend of five vineyard plots averaging 60 years old - Evocelles, Cherbaudes, Champonnet, Bel Air and Petite Chapelle.

    ABV:
    13%
    91-93/100
    Stephen Tanzer, Vinous
    (a blend of Bel-Air, Petit Chapelle and Cherbaudes; 40% vendange entier and 49% new oak): Deep red with ruby tones. Sexy scents of black raspberry, game and chocolate. Tactile, sweet and deep, with its chewy dark berry flavors complemented by saline minerality. Finishes ripely tannic and long; clearly the deepest of these 2015s to this point.
