Tasting notes
The 2010 Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice comes across as delicate and fleeting in this vintage. Dried red cherries, crushed flowers and spices are some of the notes that waft from the glass. Overall, this comes across as a bit fragile and most likely best suited for drinking over the next few years.

The 2010 Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice comes across as delicate and fleeting in this vintage. Dried red cherries, crushed flowers and spices are some of the notes that waft from the glass. Overall, this comes across as a bit fragile and most likely best suited for drinking over the next few years. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2030. This is stunning set of wines from Pierre Vincent and Domaine de la Vougeraie. It is impossible to miss the attention to detail at this impeccably run domaine. No expense is spared. It takes 80 people to work the vineyards during harvest and another 20 in the cellar to take it from there. Production in 2010 was of course down significantly as it was everywhere else. Yields came in at 24 hectoliters per hectare for the Pinot and 29 for the Chardonnay. Vincent used between 30-80% whole bunches, depending on the wine. Readers who want to learn more might want to check out my video interview with Pierre Vincent on www.erobertparker.com. I will report on the domaine’s 2009s in the April issue. For now let me just say the 2009 Musigny is one of the wines of the vintage. Importer: Boisset Family Estates, St. Helena, CA; tel. (800) 878-1123 1
