A classic Gevrey nose combines pungent earth and underbrush aromas with cool and pure red berry fruit is nuanced by a touch of cassis that is in keeping with the restrained, textured and concentrated middle weight flavors that exude an intense minerality, all wrapped in a hugely complex and persistent finish. This is one of the finest villages wines that I have ever tasted but note that it is built to go at least 20 years.

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
The Cote de Nuits' largest Grand Cru commune, producing powerful, structured and deeply flavored Pinot Noir built for long aging.
2009 in Burgundy was warm and sunny, producing ripe, rich and generous reds of hedonistic charm and supple tannins; the whites are opulent but can lack acidity, making them best enjoyed relatively young.
