90-93 This also displays moderate wood influence with a menthol top note on the very ripe cassis, spice, earth and discreet floral-suffused aromas. The supple and lavishly rich, even opulent, flavors exude a refreshing salinity on the bitter cherry pit-inflected finish that is quite firm though not really austere.

Varietal

Pinot Noir

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.

Wine Advocate

90-92 The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Bel-Air is showing well, revealing scents of cassis, spices and grilled ceps, as well as a delicate top note of juniper. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, fleshy and lively, with youthfully chalky tannins and a bright spine of acidity.

Vinous Media

90-92 The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Bel-Air 1er Cru comes from vines close to the forest, leaving it vulnerable to hungry boars. At 30% whole-bunch fruit, it has an attractive bouquet with pressed rose petals and a touch of lavender infusing the red berry fruit. The medium-bodied palate offers fine-grained tannins. Quite lithe and supple, with gentle grip and a well-defined, minerally finish. Recommended.
