    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note
    Drouhin Laroze, Gevrey Chambertin, En Champs, 2018

    A little brooding and surly at first, dense and opaque but corpulent and voluptuous. Beautifully smooth-textured dark berry fruit with liquorice spice touches. Liquid velvet. A fine, relatively cool Gevrey lieu dit that typically yields, fresh, racy wines. Fully destemmed and aged in 40% new oak.

    ABV:
    14%
    88-90/100

    The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin En Champs is very closed on the nose, touches of rose petal infusing the red berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy red berry fruit, cumin and cracked black pepper notes. There is plenty of energy and I admire the cohesion and concentration on the finish. Give this 24 months to open once in bottle.
