2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Dix Climats, Domaine Drouhin-Laroze (6 x Bottle)
A blend of 10 parcels from across Gevrey, from 2018 this will be labelled as Gevrey-Chambertin ‘Dix Climats’. Black cherry and raspberry on the nose, with delicate floral notes. The palate is medium to full bodied, with supple tannins and a good weight of fruit and fine tannins. With 4 hectares from across the village Drouhin-Laroze are able to fashion a very complete wine. This is clearly a step above most Gevrey villages and is well worth a look in 2018. Drink 2021-2031

Vinous
The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has much more clarity and Gevrey character than the version without SO2; this is much better. The palate is medium-bodied with fine acidity. Crisp and focused, displaying great clarity on the finish. Sorry, but judging them side by side, the judicious addition of SO2 renders the wine more articulate of its origin… and it is a wine that you actually want to drink. Superb.
