Tasting Notes

89-91
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jan 18
(from vines between 30 and 50 years of age; vinified with 25% whole clusters and aging in 30% new oak): Very pure aromas of black cherry, dark raspberry and licorice lifted by a violet topnote. Quite ripe and intense, with captivating high-toned lift to its dense flavors of purple and black fruits, spices and violet. More pliant in the early going than the Pommard but also displays lovely delineation. Finishes persistent and suavely tannic.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate Neal Martin - 29 Dec 17
The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes, which comes from vines between 30 and 50 years old and matured in 30% to 40% new oak with a small amount of whole cluster, has a crisp stony, blackberry and bilberry-scented bouquet, not powerful but precise. The palate is marked by slight chalky tannin, linear and strict, full of energy with a smudge of raspberry preserve hanging around on the aftertaste. Give this Vieilles Vignes three or four years in bottle just to abrade those tannins.

Jancis Robinson Jancis Robinson - 29 Nov 17
Vines 30–50 years old. 30% new oak. 25% whole bunch. Savoury, fresh, energetic nose but without any sweet fruit. A very distinct style statement! Bone-dry finish. Impressive length but it needs time. (JR)
