Jean-Michel Guillon, Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru La Petite Chapelle 2018

As one would reasonably expect, the nose is notably more elegant with its pretty and well-layered aromas of red cherry, violet, earth and a hint of wood. The racy, intense and well-detailed flavors possess a refined texture before culminating in a mocha-inflected finale. While this is clearly built for the longer-term, it’s not so structured to prevent it from being enjoyed after only 5-ish years.
