Duroche Gevrey Chambertin 2018

Now into his 9th solo vintage since taking full control from his father, the evolution in his winemaking skills is very evident by now, and he is able to translate the brilliant terroir of Gevrey Chambertin into pure, succulent and expressive wines. 2018 was a pretty concentrated and explosive vintage, showing notes of ripe berries, violets and game with a rather savory and earthy tone. The grapes are mostly de-stemmed with new oak kept to a minimum that preserves the purity so well. This is a wine of bedrock precision and strength!
