The Gevrey Aux Etelois – located below Griottes-Chambertin – is a step up in definition from the generic village. In the nose more distinct minerality … interlinked with the lovely red fruit – quite floral and expressive. On the palate finely balanced with a very nice core of red fruit and a lovely backbone of acidity and minerality. Very good expression of terroir in this wine .. given it’s level.
