full-bodied and caressing broad-shouldered flavors are blessed with an abundance of dry extract that confers a sappy texture to the powerful and balanced finale

Here the nose is really quite elegant with its assortment of red cherry

There is a wonderfully refined mouth feel to the seductively textured medium-bodied flavors that are finer but less obviously mineral-inflected than the Sentiers on the impressively persistent finish

This was the first of the single-vineyard wines from Brovia released this year that I tasted in a flight meant to increase in intensity

The quality of fruit is ripe and a touch sweet

Perrot Minot, Gevrey Chambertin other_regions_italy full-bodied and caressing broad-shouldered flavors(from La Justice and Les Seuvres). There is enough reduction to mask the underlying fruit at present. The palate impression of the tautly muscular middle weight flavors is completely different as this is quite firm and robust with good power that carries over to the balanced and impressively persistent finish. This is certainly Gevrey in character but thanks to the relatively fine grained tannins it avoids any sense of rusticity. Recommended. (89 92)
