Côtes et Climats - Pierre Mayeul - Gevrey-Chambertin AOC - Red - 2021

Wine:

From a parcel at the lower part of the village, the 2021 Red Gevrey-Chambertin  delivers a deep, aromatic, and beautifully ripe expression. Dark berry and violet notes are enhanced by a touch of spice, while the subtle oak aging adds depth without overpowering the wine’s purity. With great structure, superb balance, and a long, fresh finish, this is a brilliant reflection of both terroir and vintage.

Color:

Ruby red with garnet highlights.

Nose:

Lovely fruity bouquet with notes of wild strawberry, plum and cherry, underlined by well-controlled oak and a touch of spice.

Palate:

Structured and well-balanced, this wine offers deep, fragrant juice, perfectly ripe and flavorful, with supple tannins and a long, fresh persistence.
