Gevrey-Chambertin Cuvée Vieilles Vignes-Morgeaux Pinot Noir

Brilliant wine and a bargain for the quality at $66. The fruit is still primary (wild red and black berries), with sousbois, tea leaves, violets, and a subtle touch of oak. Drinking well now and will continue to develop nicely over the next 10-12 years. Lovely!

Typo in the id: morceaux, not morgeaux. Anyway, this is a wine I’ve loved before, but when tasted next to the Carema it felt almost flabby. Still, we weren’t eating red meat, which would make this wine shine brightly through. Still great backbone and beautiful if indulgent fruit.

Lovely wine! Elegant and light on its feet, great fruit, in fantastic form. I haven’t had much red BUrgundy in recent months, and this was a stunning return to it.

Oaky, muddled mess. What a disappointment.

Juicy cherries, blueberries and a touch of vanilla. Watermelon now and later. Still very much a baby.

Very old school. Great stuff.

Bramble and cherry on the nose, with the structure to age nicely.

Still so young, but very nice classic Gevrey brambly blackberry fruit. Not showing much else right now, but promising ripeness, length, and intensity.

Bright red fruit, a bit of earth. Drinking beautifully now, should be incredible in a few more years.

Clear, medium ruby. Clean nose, medium intensity, aromas of fresh red fruits, toast, leather, vanilla. Dry. Medium body, medium tannins, high acidity, flavours of fresh red fruits, toast, leather, vanilla. Medium finish. Excellent.
