Gevrey Chambertin Champeaux Vieille Vigne Domaine Fourrier 2016 (750ML)

91-93 Points, Stephen Tanzer, Vinous: "Healthy dark red. Lovely aromatic lift to the aromas of raspberry, black cherry, licorice, mint and menthol. A step up in intensity and depth of flavor from the foregoing samples, showing a stony, savory pungency to its brisk dark fruit and mineral flavors. The sweetest and richest of these 2016s to this point but also boasts terrific energy and lift. The savory, subtly rising, palate-staining finish piques the taste buds. Close to normal yield here, from a cooler site high on the slope." 01/18

90-93 Points, Allen Meadows, Burghound: "Aromas of spiced plum, dark cherry and violets combine with those of earth and a hint of the sauvage all of which is trimmed in enough wood to mention. The medium-bodied flavors are at once rich and refined with good vibrancy and evident minerality arising on the youthfully austere and persistent finish where hints of wood and warmth appear. The supporting tannins are relatively fine-grained and overall this is really quite good." 01/18

90 Points, William Kelley, Decanter: "The Champeaux is delicious this year, but just a bit facile for a Gevrey premier cru. Notes of raspberry, cherry and spice, framed by some Cadus cooperage, precede a medium-full, supple wine with elegant tannins and an ample core of sweet fruit." 10/17
