2027 - 2036justerini & brooks tasting note
A nicely fragrant fruit-driven and clear-eyed Gevrey villages with succulent tannins, and polished fruit of the wild cherry and bramble sort. Very silky and well-mannered with a graceful overall feel. A blend of 10 village parcels, fermented with 15% whole bunches and aged in 40% new oak of light toast.

The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin "Dix Climats", matured in 40% new oak, has a bold, almost Chambolle-like bouquet, quite pure with touches of blue fruit emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and is fleshy with fine acidity. This is one of Drouhin-Laroze's most plush wines this year, and probably only needs two or three years in bottle.
