"The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin "Les Jouises" Vieilles Vignes is raised in 20% new oak with 50–60% whole bunch. This was quite reduced on the nose and difficult to read. The palate is more open, offering ebullient red fruit, and quite spicy, revealing a liberal sprinkling of black pepper on the finish. Good potential, though it deserves 4–5 years in bottle. (NM)"

"Ripe and fresh aromas consist mostly of dark currant, violet, newly turned earth and a whiff of wood spice. The slightly sleeker middle weight flavors are not quite as dense but they're a bit finer on the well-detailed and equally saline-inflected finale. This is also worth checking out as it is a wine that could be enjoyed on the younger side or aged over the mid-term. *Burghound Outstanding!*"
