This displays the same nose as the C.C. though the middle weight flavors possess a slightly finer texture that is seductive but the reduction then shows up on the lemony finish. While not undrinkable, it’s definitely not for me and also like the C.C., optimists could try aging it a few years but I’m not one of them.In BondSG$1,445.00 -

The 2022 Saint-Véran 1er Jus retains the slightly exotic, passerillé style it revealed during élevage, exhibiting aromas of sweet stone fruits, clear honey and mango mingled with notions of toasted nuts and white flowers. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered, it concludes with a long, saline finish.In BondSG$2,065.00 -

Clearly a richer, more powerful Gevrey Chambertin expression. Without necessarily the elegance of the Corbeau it is still well built and balanced a fine, muscular Gevrey-Chambertin. A wine of remarkable style and purity with excellent concentration and intensity.In BondSG$700.00
