Tasting notes
The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru, which comes from La Perrière and Crepiot, has a floral nose with blackberry and wild strawberry fruit that seem to effortlessly subsume the 100% new oak. The palate displays excellent weight and depth; some of the new oak is tangible here and maybe just impeding terroir expression towards the finish. Very fine, though I prefer the La Marie cuvée this year.

The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru bursts with aromas of sweet berry fruit, red cherries, warm spices and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with lively acids and fine, chalky tannins, it concludes with a saline finish. It's the usual blend chez Dugat of premiers crus Craipillot and Perrières.
