Tasting Notes
Moderate ruby/garnet colour with hint of tawny on the rim. The nose is quite attractive: not complex with notes of raspberry, strawberry and a touch of eucalyptus. A masculine, quite tannic palate, racy acidity with notes of raspberry, strawberry, a little peppery, perhaps more farmyardy. Good length an grip, lingers in the mouth longer than others, though lacking the elegance of Clos St. Jacques.

The 1999 Gevrey-Chambertin Cazetiers has stony, berry-like fruit scents. Medium-bodied, firm, and foursquare, it reveals copious quantities of blackberries, cassis, and plums in its tannic (yet beautifully ripe) character.
Full medium red. Aromas of blueberry and raspberry. Juicy and gutsy, but a bit tougher than the village wine and less sweet. Finishes with a slight dry edge.
