Arnaud Mortet - Gevrey-Chambertin Cuvee de Tres Vieilles Vignes 2019

Continue Shopping Add to Wish List

Gevrey-Chambertin wine is produced in the communes of Gevrey-Chambertin and Brochon in the Côte de Nuits subregion of Burgundy. The Appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC) Gevrey-Chambertin may be used only for red wine with Pinot noir as the main grape variety. There are nine Grand Cru vineyards within the commune of Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambertin and eight others called Chambertin in combination with something else, such as Chapelle-Chambertin. While Gevrey-Chambertin also has several highly regarded Premier Cru vineyards, it has a particularly large amount of vineyards at the village level for a Côte de Nuits appellation. This is because the vineyards of the AOC stretch further to the east (beyond the N74 road) than in most neighbouring AOCs.

The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Très Vieilles Vignes offers up aromas of sweet wild berries, peonies, plums, orange rind and exotic spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered palate that's deep and concentrated, concluding with a long, penetrating finish. It's a real success. Best After 2025

From 120 year old vines in En Champs and 80+ year old in Aux Echezeaux and Combes Dessus. Rich heady purple with stunning power on the nose, truly stunning density of fruit, tightly wound, blackberry and blueberry but brilliantly brought back into balance before it can become over-powering.
