The 2014 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru certainly has one of the more attractive bouquets with redcurrant and cranberry, a touch of tobacco and marine aromas (cockle sheds I used to play on in the Thames Estuary). The palate is well balanced, with a touch of curry leaf on the entry and more black than red fruit. The 2014 has a firm grip with a noticeable backbone, yet the finish has plenty of freshness. Drinking well now, but there are a few years left to enjoy. (Neal Martin, Vinous, June 2024)

Bright tawny, opaque center with clear scarlet rims. Nose of ripe cherries, wood, moist soil and a little candied fruit. Huge mouth feel. Powerful wine. Fruit and structure match each other, both intense. This needs time and could be special in the future.
