Lignier-Michelot Gevrey-Chambertin Cuvee Bertin ‘23

This village Gevrey-Chambertin boasts a deep, intense ruby color. The nose is powerful and classic for the appellation, revealing aromas of black cherry, cassis, licorice, and a compelling earthy, slightly gamey note. On the palate, it is structured and robust for a village wine, with firm, polished tannins and a solid backbone of acidity supporting concentrated flavors of dark berries and spice. The finish is long and savory. Aged in a higher proportion of new oak, this wine is built for aging, showcasing the powerful and masculine style of Gevrey-Chambertin. Earning 93 points for its structure and intensity, it demands hearty dishes like braised short ribs, venison, or mushroom ragout.
