Bruno Clair Gevrey Chambertin les Cazetiers 1er Cru 2019 (750ML)

94 DE / 91-94 JM

From a parcel of nearly 1ha of mature vines in the white marl soils at the top of the hill above the Rousseau holding. 30% whole clusters are fermented very gently, yet yield a wine of impressive concentration and massive structure, with ripe blackberry fruit of a firmly mineral cast. The balance of tannin, extract and fresh acidity carry this to a lingering, sultry finish.--Charles Curtis MW, Decanter

Fine medium crimson purple. The lightest touch of reduction then a very attractive floral and detailed nose, quite a mix of red fruits on the palate with strawberries coming out, very good length, though perhaps slightly less precise and mineral than usual. Tasted: November 2020.--Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy
