Domaine Faiveley, Gevrey Chambertin Combe Moines Vintage:2002 As is usually the case

As is usually the case this is notably more elegant than the straight Chablis with its nose of pretty citrus

I have always liked what Fichet does with the wine and in 2002

Its classic style notwithstanding

Domaine Faiveley, Gevrey Chambertin Combe Moines Vintage:2002 As is usually the caseA 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+
