The palate is much better with sour lemon and quince on the entry

Aged 15 months in 80% new French oak before blending

Moderate wood influence frames the ripe and fresh aromas of mostly petrol

A super-fresh and markedly sauvage-inflected nose offers very cool array of red and dark berries where hints of herbal tea

Humbert Freres, Gevrey Chambertin Petite Chapelle other_regions The palate is much better(from 25 to 30 year old vines). Initially there was some reduction in evidence though aggressive swirling eventually reveals liqueur like aromas of dark currant, earthy, violet and soft spice nuances. The notably rich yet delineated medium weight flavors also possess a refined mouthfeel while delivering fine length on the mineralinflected finale. Lovely stuff and this is a wine of power and refinement. 92 2023+
