2024 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Champeaux, Marchand-Tawse

This is basically the last 1er Cru in the Combe de Lavaux before one enters the commune of Brochon. Although there is some clay here, the soil is quite rocky and porous which was kind of useful in ’24! 50% whole bunch and just two barrels. Beautiful fragrance and perfume on both the nose and palate and just beautifully joined up. This is a fine example of the sort of grace and balance that the best ‘24s have, and which will help them age with a great deal of beauty. Drink from 2032
