Bruno Clair Gevrey-Chambertin Clos du Fonteny Monopole 1er Cru 2021 (750ML)

90-92 VM / 88-90 WA

The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos du Fonteny 1er Cru has a fresh, vibrant and mineral-driven bouquet, touches of incense emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, lots of finesse here, just a touch lactic towards the finish but it's smooth and harmonious. I see this as being quite approachable compared to other vintages.-Neal Martin, Vinous Media

From vines planted in the 1970s and '80s, the 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos du Fonteny delivers attractive aromas of dark berries, petals, orange rind and spices, followed by a medium-bodied, supple and open-knit palate that's a little diffuse this year.-William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
