Description
A blend of three lieux dits in Gevrey (la Platière, Roncevie, le Forneau), this presents an even fuller and more powerful sense of Gevrey typical density and subtle savory/meatiness, with a fine sense of light minerality on the back end. Again, the fruit purity is remarkable and utterly charming; this is a Gevrey of gorgeous finesse.
“There is fine weight to this Gevrey-Chambertin. It has a dense dark purple colour, minor reduction, which soon blows off, then little cherry notes, dark fruit but not black. Sweet rich ripe fruit on the palate, very gourmand. A little touch of pepper behind. Tasted: November 2020” 91-93 Jasper Morris
“The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Platières is beautiful, bursting with aromas of peonies, raspberries, sweet wild berries, forest floor and cherries. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and charming, it’s lively and elegant, with a suave, polished profile and a perfumed finish.” 90-92 William Kelley
