Denis Bachelet, Gevrey Chambertin Corbeaux

Denis Bachelet, Gevrey Chambertin Corbeaux(also from 60 to 70 year old vines). A completely different nose that is more animale in character with more earth and crushed herbs as well that can also be found on the deep and exceptionally rich flavors that offer outstanding volume and sve on the palate drenching finish that goes on and on. This too is deceptively structured though the muscled, even robust finish does more than hint at the cellar potential. (90 92) 2015+

This is Lot L033331E100008

He normally releases two Cornas

delivering superb acidity and impressive weight

Inky violet color

mocha and floral pastille flavors that slowly become spicier and more lively as the wine opens up

a touch of mulberry and small red cherry

gentle grip with a persistent tarry finish that suggests that it needs more bottle age

the 2013 is one of the most impressive young La Serras I have ever tasted from Roberto Voerzio because the tannins are much more polished than is typically the case here

A quality Chambolle villages

boysenberries

adding further shades of complexity

A wonderfully elegant and expressive nose combines a plethora of floral wisps with those of anise and clove- inflected red currant scents
