Tasting Notes

Robert Parker Wine Advocate Neal Martin - 30 Dec 14
The 2013 Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Chezeaux has a beautiful nose with fresh red cherry and bergamot scents, lovely definition here and good vigor. The palate is silky smooth with fine acidity, harmonious, refined with impressive substance on the finish. This is a very refined Gevrey-Chambertin that should drink well over the next ten years or so.
