Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice La Vougeraie økologisk

Once again the cool and elegant aromas are markedly floral in character with a slightly lower pitched nose of both red and dark berry fruit and earth scents. The fleshy, round and utterly delicious flavors are also generous and caressing though the lingering and well-balanced finish is notably firmer. Even so my sense is that this attractively textured and well-made effort could be enjoyed after only 3 to 4 years of bottle age.

The 2015 Gevrey- Chambertin la Justice had been bottled the day prior to my visit. Despite that, it offers attractive redcurrant and cranberry scents, orange rind and hints of brown spice. I expect it will open up aromatically within a few days. The palate is tightly wound on the entry with juicy red berry fruit, cedar and undergrowth notes, just a pinch of white pepper and good depth and grip on the finish. This will gain cohesion with time - the components are all here for a very delicious Gevrey.
