The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin was all destemmed (as are all the wines here) and spent 17 months in 35% new French oak. Red cherries, blueberries, scorched earth, and spring flowers dominate the bouquet. It's another seamless wine from this estate that has terrific balance, notable purity and elegance, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish.
