Joseph Drouhin - Gevrey-Chambertin - 2015 - 750ml - Joseph Drouhin

Drouhin's 2015 Gevrey-Chambertin is showing very well from bottle, offering up an incipiently reserved nose of raspberry, cherry, dark chocolate, currant leaf and undergrowth. On the palate, the wine is supple, fine-grained, and beautifully balanced, with succulent acids, a deep core and lovely persistence, defined by the understated reserve that is this Maison’s calling card. While this Gevrey's structural refinement will mean that it can give pleasure young, in the 2015 vintage this is decidedly a bottle which will reward some time in the cellar, and it should drink well for over two decades. Note that this incorporates full 30% premier cru fruit.
