Tasting notes
About one-third whole bunch. Mid crimson. A little more savoury than the Beaune Teurons. A hint of sweet spice. Lively, light but with really fine tannins and a long, fresh finish. (JH)

Mid cherry red. Lots of spice and a lightly meaty quality to the red fruit. Lively fruit balanced by fine, dry texture. Tight, fresh, a little severe. (JH)
The 2014 Gevrey Chambertin Vieilles Vignes includes 40% whole bunch fruit. It has a natural, refined and quite earthy bouquet with damp woodland scents lending the aromatics that "autumnal" touch. The palate is nicely balanced with supple tannin, brisk redcurrant and cranberry fruit with a slightly foursquare finish. Not bad, but more for early drinking I feel.
