A year & half after first #coravin this bottle was in a great place! Glad I heeded my own advice for once and waited! Great blend of terroir, fruit and acidity. #burgundythursday

Tasted blind and was unimpressed. This wine lacked concentration, excitement, and complexity. A very gritty palate and short finish. #gevrychambertin #burgundy #pinotnoir

This #burgundy needs time to express itself. Sour cherry notes, good acidity & plenty of earthy structure

This is pretty stuff, but it's probably on the lesser side of great GC. A little bit more body than a lot of Burg, and a little spicy almost like Côte Rôtie or Willamette Pinot. Not sure what this retails for, but it's a good entry-level GC.

Dark red with slight violet. Oak, herb, plum, earthy. Taste: Earthy, acidic at deep in my tongue. Rene bouvier Gevrey. 20 @22000, AD, 240601

Un vin surprenant, se boit bien, rien ne cloche, du fruit en masse, les tannins se sont calmés un peu depuis quelques années, très typé Gevrey et très bien surtout au prix payé à l’époque. 90-91

Surprisingly good wine for the price paid at the time especially, nice fruit, the tannins are now silkier, good balance, still Gevrey like in character.
