Tasting notes
The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru has an intense, quite marine-influenced bouquet of dark cherries and blueberry fruit. This is a bouquet that wants to be noticed. The palate is medium-bodied and fleshy, with supple tannins. It has more substance than Bruno Clair's Cazetiers, but is equally well balanced. Grippy and quite powerful on the finish. Great potential, but it needs bottle age.

Aromas of peonies, blood orange, raspberries and red plums preface the 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Les Cazetiers, a medium to full-bodied, velvety wine that's supple and textural, its powdery tannins cloaked in lively fruit. Like all these 2017s, this will be approachable young even though it has the substance to age.
The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru offers a mixture of red and black fruit with scents of black olive and just a hint of licorice. The medium-bodied palate delivers grainy tannins, lovely structure and a touch of bitter cherry and gravel toward the finish. Very fine.
