Joseph Faiveley, Gevrey Chambertin 2009

The Gevrey Chambertin village 09 from Faiveley is very open and polished. In the nose slightly toasted oak – hint of sous-bois with a rather dense note of red and dark berry fruit. On the palate rich and velvet … well balanced …. but slightly dense. Like the drinkability … but the style and the vintage is perhaps not the recipe for freshness. Faiveley has something going ..would love to taste the 2010.
