Good ruby-red. Sexy, aromatic nose combines redcurrant, tobacco, espresso and spices. Then juicier and tighter than the Marsannay, with more cut and energy. Good stuffing for this wine, and excellent acid spine for the vintage. Finishes with a fine dusting of tannins, good breadth and sneaky persistence. These hillside vines yielded grapes with thicker skins in 2009, said Mortet, adding that there were more swollen berries at lower altitude.
About the producer
This estate, today with Arnaud Mortet at the helm, makes some of Gevrey-Chambertin’s finest wines. Working with 16 hectares, as well as a few négociant parcels, this property makes perfumed and chiselled Pinot Noir.
