Domaine Faiveley, Gevrey Chambertin Combe Moines

Domaine Faiveley, Gevrey Chambertin Combe MoinesA classic Gevrey nose of pungent earth, underbrush and a sauvage note to the red and dark berry fruit aromas. There is also a touch of wood that does not affect the transparency of the very rich, fullbodied and minerally flavors that possess ample amounts of mouth coating dry extract that also largely buffer the chewy, serious and dense tannic spine on the long, intense and driving finish. Excellent. (91 93) 2021+

and a second year in French oak barrels

balance and freshness

Cuvee Cathelin

challenged maybe

It feels flatter and less vibrant that I would have hoped

it is an extraordinary effort that offers the essence of graphite

ripe acidity in orbit with the flesh

Though unknown on the market

with compelling sweetness of fruit

there is very little in the way of Cannubi sensuality or character

the Tychson Hill is the least opulent of these four wines

potpourri and olive are sharpened by a smoky mineral flourish
