2017 Marsannay En Ouzeloy (BOUV10217A)
Ouzeloy is a little further south on the same strip as the Clos du Roy. The soils are pebbly, and produce a wine with a beautifully angular, ethereal structure, as well as giving a pronounced mineral tone to the ripe black fruit, silky tannins and good length. The whole has seductive freshness and balance.
2013 Marsannay 'Les Longeroies' (BOUV12213A)
Clay soils give a wine of depth and richness. The fruit is pretty, fresh and persistent.
2016 Marsannay Clos Du Roy (BOUV18216A)
Clearly the best vineyard in Marsannay, with sandy limestone-rich soils. The vines are sixty years old, and this year give a very dense, serious wine with black fruit, minerals and a long supple finish.
2013 Marsannay Clos Du Roy (BOUV18213A)
Yellow, almost sandy, well-drained soils give a perfumed freshness. The fruit is juicy and lifted, redolent of ripe strawberry and raspberry, and very dense. There are minerals in the mix too, and fine pulsating tannins.
2017 Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice (BOUV24217A)
Pebble-rich limestone soils give a perfumed, floral wine with charming ripe black fruit, excellent richness and roundness, and a long fine finish.
2016 Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice (BOUV24216A)
Pebble-rich limestone soils give a perfumed, floral wine with charming ripe black fruit, excellent richness and roundness, and a long fine finish.
2015 Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice (BOUV24215A)
Pebble-rich limestone soils give a wine that will, according to Bernard Bouvier, always be accessible whether young or old. 50% whole-bunch fermentation this year, giving a polished, lifted quality that marries well with the forward black fruit, sappy tannins and persistent minerality.
2014 Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice (BOUV24214A)
Pebble-rich limestone soils give a wine that will, according to Bernard Bouvier, always be accessible, whether young or old. It is smooth and rich, with vibrant black fruit of some depth, good finesse and a long saline finish.
2013 Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice (BOUV24213A)
2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Racine Du Temps Très Vieilles Vignes (BOUV28217A)
From three separate parcels in Brochon, just north of Gevrey, in the choice centre of the slope, where there are rich clay soils mixed with limestone. The ninety-year-old vines yield a wine with power, structure and length, accompanied by spicy black fruit. And with all this, it manages a lightness of touch, elegance and purity that make it very special.
2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Racine Du Temps Très Vieilles Vignes (BOUV28216A)
Ninety-year-old vines give enormous intensity and length. This is dense and ripe, with powerful black fruit, a very fine tannic structure and a delicate mineral backbone. It finishes on a juicy soft black fruit note.
2015 Gevrey-Chambertin Racine Du Temps Très Vieilles Vignes (BOUV28215A)
vines of this age can make a wine leaden, especially in a ripe year such as this, but not so here: it is very dense and ripe, but there is a freshness, a lightness and an extraordinary elegance from the very fine tannins which makes it almost ethereal. A very good village indeed.
2014 Gevrey-Chambertin Racine Du Temps Très Vieilles Vignes (BOUV28214A)
Ninety-year-old vines give enormous intensity and length. Often vines of this age can make a wine leaden, but not here: there is great energy and excellent definition to the black spicy fruit. There is also considerable power and finesse, and it finishes on a fresh, persistent note.
2013 Vosne-Romanée (BOUV30213A)
Rounded, perfumed fruit that is quite dark, silky in the mouth, fine and long.
2013 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Les Fontenys (BOUV40213A)
Perfumed, lifted and intense, this poised wine is rounded and silky, bursting with fresh red fruit and mineral heat on the finish. Very elegant indeed.
2012 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Les Fontenys (BOUV40212A)
2015 Charmes-Chambertin (BOUV60215A)
Spicy, vibrant and packed with black fruit, rich fine tannins and a long mineral flourish on the finish.
2013 Charmes-Chambertin (BOUV60213A)
Black cherry fruit, chocolatey and voluptuous, balanced by fresh floral notes and rich mineral flavours. Very intense and long.
