A biodynamic Gevrey-Chambertin from Domaine Derain's En Vosne lieu-dit — deep ruby, expressive, and structured, with black cherry, forest floor, and violet on the nose and the firm tannins and dark fruit depth that define this most powerful of Burgundian villages.
Tasting Notes
Deep ruby with luminous clarity. Black cherry, raspberry, forest floor, violets, and subtle spice on the nose. Elegant yet structured on the palate with dark berry fruit, fine tannins, and earthy minerality leading to a long, refined, and expressive finish. Derain's biodynamic approach brings remarkable freshness and transparency to Gevrey's characteristic power — the result sits closer to Chambolle than to the village's more muscular expressions.
