Wine:

With a majority of whole grapes, the 2019 Red Chambertin Grand Cru promises a slow evolution, which bodes well for this solar vintage. For now it shows its supremacy, with still firm tannin but remarkable length. This is obviously a wine to be patient for, although the deliciousness of the fruit and the spice and cocoa notes are already there. The most powerful and deepest of the Gevrey crus remains at the top of its game, asserting its great perfume and exceptional palate volume with ease and nobility. Ultimate! A wine rated 100/100 by the RVF !
