Tasting notes
The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru is showing beautifully, wafting from the glass with scents of raspberries, rose petals, cassis and sweet soil tones. Medium to full-bodied, lively and layered, it's fine-boned and elegant, with a perfumed core of fruit, bright acids and a long, mouthwatering finish. It's the usual blend chez Dugat of premiers crus Craipillot and Perrières.

The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru is generous on the nose, peony and incense complementing the vibrant red fruit and a hint of cassis emerging with time. There is something joyful about these aromatics. The palate is medium-bodied with very supple, saturated tannins that lend this a fleshier, slightly more corpulent body than the Village Cru. It fans out nicely toward the flinty finish, and pure dark fruit lingers on the aftertaste. This is very promising.
