At the heart of Burgundy's prestige lie its renowned vineyards, which have garnered global acclaim for their exceptional wines. The names that resonate in the world of Burgundy are Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Domaine Leroy, Domaine Armand Rousseau, and Domaine Georges Roumier. These vineyards have become synonymous with greatness, crafting wines that define elegance, complexity, and longevity.

Good bright red. Very reduced nose hints at cherry and redcurrant. Supple on entry, the quite closed in the mid-palate and hard to taste now despite its breadth and sweetness. Best today on the silky, lingering back end, which shows lovely finishing spiciness.Inc. GSTSG$3,857.95 -

The ripe and beautifully layered aromas offer up notes of cassis, wild dark berries and plenty of sauvage characteristics. There is lovely sense of underlying tension present on the reasonably concentrated and powerful flavors that also exude evident minerality on the very firm but well-balanced, complex and sneaky long finale. This is an archetypical Cazetiers of muscle and overt power.Inc. GSTSG$1,235.47 -

This comes mostly from the Combe de Lavaux sector. Dense bright balanced purple. The first nose is a little bit reticent but there is plenty happening behind, so lively with a perfectly balanced fruit and acidity, roses and raspberries, long and fine.Inc. GSTSG$934.59 -

The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Prieur 1er Cru, which is a new long-term contract for Drouhin, is lucid ruby in color. It has a fresh raspberry and crushed strawberry nose, touches of mint and allspice emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip on the entry. It feels well structured, with good backbone, maybe missing a little tension toward the finish, but persistent and satisfying. Give it two or three years in bottle.Inc. GSTSG$747.15 -

The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Prieur 1er Cru is another to add to a list of impressive wines from this less well-known Premier Cru. Vivid red berries, black olive and light limestone aromas waft temptingly from the glass and dupe you into thinking you're in more noble territory. The palate is very well balanced with fine definition, taut and fresh with a crisp and vivacious finish that has the sapidity to urge you back for more. Expect this to land at the top of my banded score.Inc. GSTSG$983.62 -

The 2013 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques was cropped on October 12, entirely destemmed and underwent a 20-day maceration, spending 13 months in oak. It has a wonderful bouquet: very well defined with forest floor, soy and brambly red berry fruit. There is very good intensity here. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, good depth and harmony with a crisp, white pepper-dashed finish. There is already a sense of completeness here and will be well worth seeking out when released in the spring. It has the hubris to outperform both the Charmes-Chambertin and Clos-de-Bèze!Inc.

(the parcels that go into this wine yielded an average of about 40 hectoliters per hectare in '16): Medium red. Dark raspberry, mint and soil tones on the nose, lifted by subtle violet perfume. A supple, pliant midweight with good energy and concentration. But ultimately less sweet than the Vosne-Romanée, with the tannins arriving late but turning a bit dusty. Jérôme Faure-Brac noted that all three of these village wines from the Côte de Nuits include some premier cru juice.Inc. GSTSG$542.17 -
Decanter (93)
The secret ingredient in this impressive village Gevrey-Chambertin is the inclusion of 25% Premier Cru grapes, which add a little more texture and concentration to the blend. With adroitly handled 20% whole bunches and new wood, it's spicy, sweet and textured with sappy acidity and notes of summer pudding and aromatic kitchen spices.Inc. GSTSG$952.01 -

The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has a very pure bouquet with dark cherries and blueberry, almost Chambolle-like in style. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, very good weight, fine grip towards the structured finish. Very fine.Inc. GSTSG$657.77 -
(12x75cl) 2004Vinous (89+)
Moderately saturated medium red. Closed, reduced nose hints at redcurrant, plum and smoke. Rather austere in the mouth, with an edge of acidity and apparent oak currently overshadowing the wine's fruit, earth and spice elements. Very firm wine but today it's a bit dry and edgy, even austere. This is very difficult to taste and needs time.Inc. GSTSG$5,552.24 -
Vinous (90+)
(bottled in August):Bright medium red. Reticent raspberry and menthol aromas are complicated by smoky minerality. Very dry and a bit awkward four months after the bottling, showing a solid underpinning of minerality but not quite the flesh to buffer its slightly edgy acids and tannins. This will need time to harmonize and expand in bottle, but it appears to be a rather delicate style of Grands-Echézeaux.Inc. GSTSG$1,840.42 -
(6x75cl) 2016Vinous (96)
The 2016 Grands-Echézeaux Grand Cru has a similar nose to Tremblay’s Echézeaux tasted alongside. Raspberry and crushed strawberry at first, autumn leaves and attractive wilted rose petal aromas following suit. Fine delineation and nicely integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy ripe red berry fruit, fine tannin, plenty of spice and a subtle garrigues-like/Provençal note towards the harmonious finish. Excellent. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting.Inc. GSTSG$6,402.07 -
Vinous (94)
The 2017 Grands Echézeaux Grand Cru might have a scintilla of brettanomyces that slightly occludes the fruit on the earthy, perhaps animally nose. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy ripe red fruit, and quite toasty in style, showing modest depth and candied character toward the finish, which gains wonderful precision with time in the glass and reveals a long, persistent tail.

The 2018 Grands-Echézeaux Grand Cru, which comes from the namesake lieu-dit, is one of Véronique Drouhin’s favorite crus and, in her opinion, one of their most consistent. It has a very well-defined bouquet of blackberry, raspberry, pressed iris flowers and incense that immediately seduces the senses. The palate is medium-bodied with fine supple tannins and a perfect line of acidity, the 40% whole cluster lending a little pepperiness toward the pixelated finish. This is unequivocally a Grand Vin.Inc. GSTSG$3,813.32 -

The 2021 Grands-Echézeaux Grand Cru has quite an elegant, natural, refined bouquet: red berry fruit, briar and light sous-bois scents, well-integrated oak and fine delineation. The palate is nicely defined with a touch of sweet-and-sour fruit on the entry. Chalky tannins are slightly bitter, with a bit of attenuation on the finish.
