Domaine Bachelet 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin "Les Corbeaux" 1er Cru 750ml

Moderate wood suffuses the cool and ripe nose of restrained dark berry fruit aromas that are liberally laced with earth, forest floor and overt sauvage elements. There is a lovely mid-palate mouthfeel to the beautifully tension-filled flavors that possess exquisite poise due to the lovely interplay between the fruit, density, structure and acidity on the impressively persistent finale. Lovely stuff that should also repay mid-term keeping. Worth checking out.

Score: 91-93 points, Outstanding -- Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 2023
