Tasting Notes

Robert Parker Wine Advocate Neal Martin - 30 Dec 14
The 2013 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Cherbaudes does not quite possess the same fruit intensity on the nose as the other premier crus at this tage. This feels a little more conservative and straightlaced. The palate is sweet on the entry, fleshy and much more generous than the nose suggests, with a crisp thread of acidity and a caressing, sensual texture on the finish. Very fine.

Close to Clos de Bèze. Pale crimson. Not that expressive on the nose. You have to really concentrate to get the rich cherry fruit. Full and intense with real savour on the end. Not too much oak. Very firm and long term but with a twist of sweet fruit before the quite dry finish. (JR)
