The 4th Grand Cru in the Gevrey lineup is in fact the Perrot Minot Mazoyeres despite the photo. Sorry for the confusion. All tasted blind. Mid to rich ruby. Oak tannins on the nose? Whole bunch influence but not as much as the Charmes. Sweet rich palate with a touch of astringency to finish off. Pretty good and easy to appreciate.

Jan 19th, 2019Delectable - this is the Perrot Minot Charmes Chambertin as per the photo. The 3rd of the 9 Grand Crus from Gevrey we tasted. Colour of mid Ruby. Hint of boot polish on the nose. Some whole bunch astringent notes on the palate. Barely medium bodied with good acid. A little more mid palate flesh would not go astray. I usually find Charmes a little on the lighter side but sometimes it surprises.
