Tasting notes
Reviewed by: William Kelley
Another high point of the range is the 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Seuvrées, a medium to full-bodied, layered and velvety wine evocative of dark berries, licorice, sweet soil tones and potpourri. Vibrant and intense, it's a serious cuvée, built to age.
About the Producer
For vinifications and ageing, our methods are little interventionist.The fruit’s quality is essential to craft 24 great wines. We make fresh, fine and elegant wines which are also full bodied with a long lasting and mouth-watering finish. Each of our terroirs (Clos de la Roche, Morey, Gevrey-Chambertin, …) expresses itself through our wines. Our ageing in barrels (20 to 30% new oak) is rather long (20 or 22 months), on lees and without racking after malolactic fermentation. The wines are bottled using gravity, without fining in order to keep the wine’s freshness and its ageing potential.
