Tasting Notes

Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 31 Jan 23
The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Aux Combottes allies texture and tension to compelling effect, wafting from the glass with aromas of cherries, plums, sweet spices and coniferous forest floor, framed by a deft touch of new oak. Medium to full-bodied, ample and enveloping, it's fleshy and layered, with vibrant acids and powdery structuring tannins.

Vinous Neal Martin - 05 Jan 23
The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Combottes 1er Cru has a gorgeous bouquet with vibrant red fruit laced with pressed roses and peony. A 2020 with a spring in its step. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, taut and fresh, more defined than last year with a pinch of white pepper on the finish. Excellent.
Drinking Date: 2025 - 2045
