The Gevrey Chambertin from the Méo-Camuzet estate comes from several small plots of approximately 40 acres, notably at the place called "en champ", located to the north of the town and in Brochon, above the route des grands crus. Another plot, the “jeunes rois”, is located just below and is also very high quality. The soil of these terroirs could certainly claim a premier cru appellation; but the location is a little late: it is not the orientation which is in question, it is very classic (towards the east), we must rather incriminate the valley of Lavaut (magnificent limestone cirque which leads to the high -coasts), which cools the climate and therefore explains this somewhat harsh classification. It is a wine which tolerates new barrels well (the proportion is close to 50%) and which evolves slowly. This Gevrey-Chambertin is a solid wine. The nose reveals delicious notes of morello cherry, cherry, wild raspberry with a hint of spices. The palate is powerful and elegant thanks to a very nice balance between the finesse of small red fruits and tannins designed for aging. Great rare wine!
