The steep Cazetiers vineyard is among the best of Gevrey’s Premier Crus. This is a robust wine that can take all the wood thrown at it and still come back tasting of sweet plums and fresh raspberries. The tannins, with their smoky character, shine right through the heart of the wine.

Dark colored, highly perfumed wine, packing rich fruit with its ripe, chunky structure. Black berries give a juicy character, taming the acidity, and allowing the wood smoke to wreath around the wine. Age for at leasy six years, but this can withstand more.

The village of Saint-Romain is a great source of good value whites, like this fresh, creamy wine, with its new wood flavors and lime acidity. It’s rounded, but certainly not heavy, with a caramel aftertaste.

A great success, this wine combines the structure of Gevrey-Chambertin with some beautiful, deeply flavored fruits. The tannins, too, are well managed, with a dusty, fine feel to them, while the red berry fruits are well in balance.

At this stage, this wine is fresh and lemony, but what lies beneath has huge power and richness and layers of toast and vanilla. Has great potential. Imported by Daniel Johnnes Wines.

Licorice, black cherry and spice fit comfortably together in this big wine. Flavors of stone fruits along with dry tannins and ripe acidity combine to give a solid wine that will age. Lay this aside for five years.

A rich and generous wine, its fruit flavors coming from all directions and centering on a powerful, concentrated core. The wine has opulence, a well-judged amount of wood, and aging potential for six years or more.
