The 2015 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru clearly has the most sensual bouquet among the sextet of Les Cazetiers in this flight, possessing copious red cherry, crushed strawberry, vanilla pod and light flinty scents, perhaps with a judicious amount of stem addition. The harmonious, exquisitely detailed palate is very well balanced with a crisp line of acidity, the red fruit merging with more black toward a sustained finish of palpable mineralité. This is a very sophisticated Les Cazetiers destined for long-term aging. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.-- Neal Martin, Vinous Media

Bright red-ruby. Aromas and flavors of black cherry and licorice are complicated by hints of game, leather and earth. Broad, sweet and pliant; in fact, finer-grained and more feminine than this wine normally is at this stage. Boasts terrific density of material and finishes very long, with surprisingly suave tannins and enticing salty minerality. Serafin's Cazetier often needs a decade of cellaring, but this palate-saturating wine should be accessible earlier than that. Stephen Tanzer

The 2015 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers is laced with the essence of sweet red cherry, plum, rose petal and exotic spices. Silky tannins add to an overall impression of finesse. Here, too, there is a good balance of ripeness and structure. This is an especially soft, supple style, and yet there is good density and power in reserve. Production is a whopping three barrels.-- Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

A little more depth of colour, vigorous purple. Again discretion, but not lightness, is the hallmark of the nose, a really fine elegant charming wine, offering plenty of detail, with little red fruits, alpine strawberries, some mineral subtleties. Good fresh acidity and distinguished length. Tasted: October 2017—Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy

Tasting note: Ripe and pretty aromas are comprised of poached plum, dark raspberry, game and discreet earth nuances. The succulent, round and generous medium-bodied flavors possess very good power and punch on the robust finale that is impressively complex, palate coating and persistent. This moderately austere, dusty and serious effort will require extended patience as it's presently very firm. Outstanding. Allen Meadows, Burghound

Tasting note: The ripe and beautifully layered aromas offer up notes of cassis, wild dark berries and plenty of sauvage characteristics. There is lovely sense of underlying tension present on the reasonably concentrated and powerful flavors that also exude evident minerality on the very firm but well-balanced, complex and sneaky long finale. This is an archetypical Cazetiers of muscle and overt power. Sweet spot – Outstanding. –Allen Meadows, Burghound

With a beautiful deep rubis colour, the wine develops complex aromas of small red and black fruits, spices and liquorice. The mouth is generous. It shows a good structure and is powerful with silky tannins
