2018 Thierry Mortet Gevrey Chambertin - 93 PTS - WE

wine enthusiast 93 pts"This wine opens with a subtle but smoky note of Morello cherry. The palate continues in this aromatic, beautifully tart vein, letting freshness lift the fruit but also exposing a dense, concentrated core of tannic firmness and concentration. This wine is elegant, vivid and oh so juicy. - ANNE KREBIEHL MW"

vinous logo"The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has a clean, rounded, pastille-like bouquet with vivid red cherry and strawberry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, moderate acidity, but it feels a little simple towards the finish. Drink over the next 5 to 8 years. - Neal Martin"

"A moderately generous wood treatment includes hints of menthol on the ripe cassis, black cherry and earth suffused nose. There is excellent richness to the round and suave middle weight flavors that possess a seductive mouth feel before terminating in a moderately rustic finish that offers good if not special depth and length."

"Light crimson. Very light nose but with some ripe purple-fruit aromas. Solid and correct – and not expensive. Cranberry flavours. Solid even if not absolutely thrilling. Good balance."

wine spectator 91 pts"This is lush, showing black cherry, blackberry and spice flavors, with a beam of acidity and mineral. Remains persistent, with spice and mineral notes unfolding on the long aftertaste. Best from 2017 through 2027. 1,250 cases made. –BS"

I Wine Review"A lightly flavored Burgundy showing red cherry, a bit of red plum, and garrigue. Quite dry on the mid-palate but elegant nonetheless. All destemmed fruit, aged in a combination of new and used oak for 12 months."
