$69.43The Story
This wine is a deep ruby with a delicious nose Including red and black fruit and mixed spices. The blend on the palate of more cherry, vanilla and raspberry aromas, with freshness to this round, fleshy and silky texture. The delicacy of these aromas and the fruit on the finish make this a very charming appellation.
91 Points - Vinous
The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Au Closeau Premier Cru has a wonderful bouquet of red currant, cranberry and light sous-bois aromas, all very focused and nicely detailed. The palate is equipped with fine, supple tannins that render this a pliant Gevrey-Chambertin, although there is some new oak on the finish that needs to be subsumed. At 60%, I can see how a little more prudence might have been preferable.
