Gevrey-Chambertin wines are deep in colour with fine expressive, lightly earthy, aromas - robust and firm when young, but age beautifully. Mongeard's plot has an average vine age of 40 years, all hand sorted, with only 30-40% new oak. Deep ruby. Reductive nose, a little bit of spice. Juicy, fluid, savoury and mineral. Spicy oak showing on the end.Katharine Maude 14/04/2025

The high-toned and admirably pure nose consists of ultra-fresh red cherry, floral and softly spiced aromas. The racy, intense and beautifully well-detailed medium weight flavours possess a refined, even sophisticated, mouthfeel while delivering outstanding length on the stony, moderately austere and...

A wonderfully broad-ranging nose reflects plenty of floral influences along with a lovely array of spice elements on the airy and cool mix of both red and dark berries. The equally cool, pure and relatively dense medium weight flavours coat the palate with sap while displaying impressive depth and p...

Distinct notes of earth and game suffuse the brooding aromas of red berries, pretty floral and a whiff of humus character. There is solid mid-palate density to the supple and round yet serious flavours that culminate in a better-balanced, youthfully austere and sneaky long finale. Fine quality for i...

Combe Dessus (in 2023) was blended into the rest of the villages because the old vines had suffered in the dryness and was only a small cuvee – the balance was blended with the the rest of the GevreyExtra energy and perfume to this nose. Large in scale and beautifully juicy – a little direct and...

One plot, replanted in 2014, in Les Epointures. An intense and broadly based purple colour. Despite the youth of the vines, the intensity is there at the start, with a strong presence of raspberries, quite tight, rather firm acidity, medium bodied behind. Sound and quite long. Nine barrels made. 89-91 Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy (2023).

Pale ruby. Elegant nose of red fruits, echoed on the palate by sweet raspberry and cherry. The tannins are well knit, fine but present. The colour is deceptively pale, there’s good concentration here. The long length is blessed with salty minerality.16.5 Matthew Hayes (for Jancis Robinson MW)

The fruit comes mostly from old vines in Carougeots, plus En Jouise and Belair. Lively pleasing red fruit, shows strawberry behind, raspberry up front, with the peppery finish of a wine which has just missed reaching optimum ripeness. 88-91 Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy (2022).Drinking Window: 2025-2030

The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos du Fonteny 1er Cru has a fresh, vibrant and mineral-driven bouquet, touches of incense emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, lots of finesse here, just a touch lactic towards the finish but it's smooth and harmonious. I see this as being...

Ripe yet cool aromas include those of plum, violet, dark cherry and a whiff of sauvage character. There is excellent richness and volume to the even denser medium-bodied flavours that coat the palate with sappy dry extract on the powerful, dusty and built-to-age finale. This is an excellent Gevrey v...

Once again the nose is ripe yet cool with its blends of both red and dark berries, plenty of sauvage character and a smoky hint. There is excellent volume and better concentration to the larger-bodied and powerful flavours that conclude in a muscular and sneaky long finish that is very firmly struct...

This is aromatically quite similar to the Champeaux with perhaps just a bit more elegance. The mid-palate mouthfeel of the medium-bodied flavours is finer still with more minerality as well that adds a sense of lift to the moderately austere finish where the supporting tannins are firm and slightly ...

An exceptionally pretty, even perfumed, nose freely offers up more elegant aromas where the fruit derives more from the red side of the spectrum. There is again a lovely sense of verve to the detailed and denser flavours that possess slightly better complexity and persistence on the balanced and you...

The 2023 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Evocelles includes 30% whole bunch, and that works to its advantage, lending a "coolness" and "spiciness" to the mixture of red and black fruit—far better than the Gevrey Village. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, good weight and commendable persistency,...

The 2023 Gevrey-Chambertin Bel-Air 1er Cru includes 30% whole bunches this year. This has a mineral-driven bouquet with crushed limestone, redcurrant, raspberry and just a touch of brown spice and pressed violet. The palate is medium-bodied with an understated, quite fleshy entry. This is a Gevrey t...

This is Charles Magnien’s largest Premier Cru holding, and the wine with which he most closely identifies – his parents’ home is exactly at the foot of these vines. It is the most northerly of the three Côte Saint Jacques vineyards owned by the estate. They own plots on all four of the differ...
