Tasting Notes

Easy, sweet nose without much structure in evidence. Already quite open and casual. Fresh, crunchy fruit but very low key (especially in contrast to Dugat-Py where I had just tasted).

Score: 15 - 16

Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com Maturity: 2011-2018 12 August 2007

The domaine’s 2005 Gevrey-Chambertin represents a union of fruit from many different parcels south and east of town for which the fruit was de-stemmed. Flatteringly sweetly-fruited, indeed subtly candified on the nose and palate, it offers a roasted underlying meatiness and subtle hints of caramelization continuing with a satisfyingly sweetly-rich, gentle finish. In short, as is the proprietor’s intent, this is "supple and agreeable" not to mention reeking of vintage-typical ripeness.

Score: 88 - 90

David Schildknecht, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com 01 April 2007

A lovely and expressive nose that is unusually broad relative to its normal backward state features a pretty mix of red, black and violet earth-infused aromas that lead to rich, supple and round flavors that possess good depth and a nervy and racy finish, all wrapped in a nicely long finish.

Score: 87 - 89
