Chamard de Gros Gevrey-Chambertin is primarily sourced from dedicated parcels located within the prestigious Gevrey-Chambertin appellation, specifically the ''La Justice'' climate known for its well-drained limestone and sand soils. This 2023 vintage is a blend of 100% Pinot Noir. The estate is managed with organic principles, and this vintage was crafted following the same meticulous care as the domaine's Premier and Grand Crus, utilizing approximately 50% whole-bunch fermentation. It was aged in a combination of 50% ceramic jars and 50% French oak barrels (with no more than 20% new oak) to maintain precision and terroir focus.

Tasting Notes:

Exquisite aromas of lavender, cigar ash and Spanish cedar with dried citrus follow through to a medium body and a solid palate with powerful, ultrafine and linear tannins. The muscle and long finish are so beautiful. The 2023 is an especially somber Forts endowed with tons of richness as well as structure... Blue/purplish fruit, lavender, graphite, sage and mocha build into the substantial finish. The 2023 is shaping up to be a jewel of a wine.'' Score: 92 - James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, Jan 2025

Serving Suggestions:
