Gevrey-Chambertin 2012 Denis Mortet

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (90)

The 2012 Gevrey Chambertin from the talented Arnaud Mortet seemed a little bashful on the nose, but with aeration it reveals attractive blackberry and wild strawberry scents that are well defined, just a touch of sous-bois with further opening. The palate is medium-bodied with rounded ripe tannin, plenty of bold dark cherry and raspberry fruit that exerts a gentle grip. The acidity is well judged here and there is a finesse on the finish above Village Cru quality. This is simply excellent.

This is lush, showing black cherry, blackberry and spice flavors, with a beam of acidity and mineral. Remains persistent, with spice and mineral notes unfolding on the long aftertaste.
