94-96 The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Aux Combottes comes from a parcel just south of Clos de la Roche that was planted in 1957. It has a very subtle bouquet at first, gradually unfurling to reveal vibrant red berry fruit, fern, iris and bay leaf scents, later just a distant tang of iron rust. The palate is medium-bodied, the one-third whole-bunch fruit beautifully subsumed into the fabric of this Gevrey with a supple, quite fleshy finish belying the backbone underneath. Superb.
Regularly described as being the grape varietal responsible for producing the world's most romantic wines, Pinot Noir has long been associated with elegance and a broad range of flavors The name means 'black pine' in French, and this is due to the fact that the fruit of this particular varietal is especially dark in color, and hangs in a conical shape, like that of a pine cone. Despite being grown today in almost every wine producing country, Pinot Noir is a notoriously difficult grape variety to cultivate. This is because it is especially susceptible to various forms of mold and mildew, and thrives best in steady, cooler climates. However, the quality of the fruit has ensured that wineries and vintners have persevered with the varietal, and new technologies and methods have overcome many of the problems it presents. Alongside this, the wide popularity and enthusiasm for this grape has ensured it will remain a firm favorite amongst wine drinkers for many years to come.

Vinous Media
The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Combottes 1er Cru has an intense bouquet with vivacious blackberry, raspberry and rose petal scents that just blossom in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin and plenty of graphite infused black fruit. A fresh and quite tensile finish demonstrates great precision and persistence. Classy and long term, but I would like to see more of the verve that it displayed copiously in barrel. Tasted at the Domaine.

91-93 A reserved but exceptionally elegant and wonderfully pure nose combines notes of plum, violet, spice, earth and a whiff of smoke. The sleek, refined and intense middle weight flavors are less powerful than the Morey 1er but notable finer, all wrapped in a balanced and sneaky long finish. This is a wine that should be approachable young but has the stuffing to age effortlessly.
