Gorgeous! Good minerals, walnut on the nose, racy acidity almost like a St Aubin — 7 years ago

A cheap Premier Cru, and not disgusting. Standard notes of copper, smoke, bacon. Would go well with soy sauce BBQ meats. But not amazing. — 4 years ago

Lovely, dried cherries and hints of tobacco on the nose, Still tried fruit on the pallet, starting to be a bit short on the finish, soft tannins — 6 months ago
Nice acidity and texture — 4 years ago
First pour. I agree with Wine Enthusiast -black plums and black cherries, gently spiced with oak notes of cinnamon, clove and ginger. An ultrasmooth texture comes from fine-grained tannins! — 4 years ago
2021/5/13-14. There’s a calming, easygoing, spherical quality to this wine. While there are really nice savory, tertiary notes on the nose, it isn’t effusive - you go dig around in it instead. There are raspberries and blackberries and forest floor nuances there too, with a nice balance of fruit and acid, some powdery stone. and a perfumey, noble note. I feel like Gravières is a great example of the kind of cru a not-totally-loaded Burgundy lover needs to know. — 5 years ago

I opened a nice red burg on a weekday evening to honor a friend from work who passed. He and I talked about Burgundy a lot.
The color is fairly light but the nose leaps out of the glass with limestoney-inflected moist gravel, deep ripe, oozing cherries, and a musky floral note. Richly flavored on the palate, but light in texture. Excellent acids. Stony mineral and saline notes in equipoise with the fruit. Fairly chiseled in texture, with super soft tannins in the background. Lengthy finish. Superb. Here’s to you my friend. — 6 days ago
