Tasting Notes

92-94
Robert Parker Wine Advocate Neal Martin - 31 Dec 15
The 2014 Gevrey Chambertin 1Er Cru Combe Aux Moines was another barrel sample that was showing a little reduction, although it soon brushes that away with fleshy red cherry, strawberry and tinned apricot aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannin, a killer line of acidity, fresh and vibrant with superb mineralité towards the energetic finish. This has great potential.

Moderately saturated medium red. Coolish, youthfully subdued aromas of blueberry, licorice and menthol. Juicy and penetrating, showing excellent clarity and menthol reserve to its flavors of dark berries and savory, smoky minerality. Not a big wine but has the delineation, firm tannic spine and length to evolve slowly in the cellar.
Drinking Date: 2023 - 2031
