FEATURES
🏰 The 2007 vintage for Burgundy, particularly Gevrey-Chambertin, is described as a bit denser than 2006, with more enrobed tannins and lower grape sugars, suggesting a wine with good depth and structure. Domaine Denis Mortet is renowned for crafting expressive, masculine, concentrated, spicy, and rich wines that are built for cellaring. The Gevrey-Chambertin Les Champeaux 1er Cru, sourced from 70-80 year old vines on an east-facing slope with limestone close to the surface, is a prime example of their meticulous approach. This wine typically presents a dark and deep character, with tannins that lightly coat the palate and fresh berry scents on the finish, making it a complete and age-worthy wine. Expect notes of spiced red fruits, mushroom, leather, earthy undertones, oak, chocolate, and coffee. 【 A concentrated, age-worthy Premier Cru from a top Gevrey-Chambertin site. 】
🍴 This robust red Burgundy is an excellent companion for a range of rich dishes. Classic pairings include veal, game meats such as deer and venison, and various preparations of duck, goose, and other game birds. Consider it with roasted poultry, mushroom-based dishes, or even a hearty beef bourguignon.
🥂 Ideal for a celebratory dinner, a special occasion with discerning guests, or a serious tasting focused on mature Burgundy. Its structure and depth also make it a rewarding wine for cellaring and enjoying over many years.
