Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
By using the brand Joseph Faiveley for its négociant wines, made from purchased grapes, Faiveley is able to distinguish this range from its domaine wines. This Gevrey is luxuriously perfumed, finely structured with dusty tannins and already delicious Pinot Noir. It has a fine strain of acidity, which adds freshness to the solid character.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Smooth, creamy wine, with rounded white fruits that float easily over the judicious light toast flavor. The wine has some richness, but the mineral character of Chablis is there, giving the wine delicious fruit structure. Imported by Wilson Daniels Ltd.

Light in color, marked by strawberry jam flavors, this is fruity but certainly not weighty. There is pleasant acidity and freshness, with an easy, soft texture. Drink now. Imported by Wilson Daniels Ltd.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Very light, flavored with fruit drops and pear juice, this feels soft, verging on dilute. Yes, there are some easy fruity flavors, but the acidity is missing and the wine is unstructured. Imported by Wilson Daniels Ltd.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A properly steely, mineral-structured wine. It has citrus, pink grapefruit, green berries and a great core of tight fruits and acidity. With its green apple skin structure, this is vibrant and deliciously taut. Imported by Wilson Daniels Ltd.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A wine with great substance, a rounded, lightly toasty character giving richness. It doesn’t lose the freshness of Chablis, with the pear and green plum fruits lifted by a fine grapefruit and lime citrus character. Worth aging for 4–5 years, but already ready to drink. Imported by Wilson Daniels Ltd.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A rich wine, with delicious juicy white fruit flavors that roll around the mouth. The fruits are right up front initially, but then the structure of toast, apple skin tannins and some spice come in, giving fine complexity, promising good aging. Keep for 4–5 years, probably more. Imported by Wilson Daniels Ltd. Cellar Selection.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Heavily wooded, this is a wine in which the toastiness is too much for the fruit. You can feel the weight, with hints of white fruits, but all that wood is just too much. Imported by Wilson Daniels Ltd.

A firm, structured wine, big and bold, bursting with black cherry fruits, plums, figs and a dry core of dark tannins. It has all the bravura of the appellation.
