Variety: 100% Pinot Noir
Sub-Appellation: Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru
Premier Cru: La Perriere
Region: Burgundy, France
The 2013 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru la Perrière was debudded around 50% in July after the poor weather, in order to increase the potential concentration. That comes through on the nose that has density and presence: blackberry, raspberry coulis and forest floor scents. The palate is medium-bodied with good density and ripe tannins. There is appreciable weight in the mouth and there is plenty of ripe blackberry and raspberry fruit to savor. But I would afford it a couple of years in bottle.
