La Pousse d'Or Perriere Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru 2020

THE POWER OF GEVREY-CHAMBERTIN IS ON FULL DISPLAY

 

"A decidedly earthier and more sauvage-inflected nose reflects very fresh notes of poached plum and wild dark cherries. The delicious, vibrant and attractively textured flavors are on the lighter side though I quite like the firm but fine-grained tannins supporting the nicely long finale." - Alan Meadows

 

"Domaine de la Pousse d‘Or is one of the oldest and most respected producers in Burgundy, with roots evidenced back to the 1100s. Their 2021 wine captures perfectly the Pousse d’Or style that has made their wine legendary: giving rich, sumptuous fruit with complex savoury backdrops wrapped up in a structure that is ageworthy. An exceptional pedigree and storied vineyards sees their wine sit in the top tier of Burgundy, offering fantastic value at the same time.

“La Perriere” is a Premier Cru site just positioned below the Grand Cru of Mazis-Chambertin on the hill. It has the top site's power and richness too. Pousse d’Or has a small, strong parcel of 30-40 year old vines here. All the fruit is destemmed and aging is in mostly older barriques, resulting in a pure expression, packed with red and black cherry, blueberry flavours, plus spice, coffee, chocolate, and an earthy minerality." - Wine House
