Tasting Notes

Vinous Antonio Galloni - 01 Apr 12
The 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Champeaux is a deep, sensual wine. Dark cherries, plums, licorice and smoke are some of the aromas and flavors that emerge from the glass. The wine fills out beautifully in every direction. The Champeaux is opulent, fleshy and flat-out delicious. Today the 100% new oak is just a bit prominent.
