Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru, Les Cherbaudes, Domaine Louis Boillot

Note:

The 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cherbaudes flows from the glass with tremendous depth and richness. Dark blue and black fruit, violets and licorice are some of the many nuances that emerge over time as the wine becomes more delicate and feminine with air. This is another 2009 endowed with considerable freshness and verve. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2029.

These five 2009s all met or exceeded my expectations based on what I tasted from barrel during my last visit. Over the last few years there has been no shortage of fabulous wines in this cellar.
