Another lovely cuvée is the 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Village, an assemblage of eight different old-vine parcels dotted all over the commune. Offering up aromas of raspberries, cassis, orange rind and rose petals, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, with fine concentration, lively acids and a seamless, elegant profile.

The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Village comes from vines between 50 and 80 years old. It comes across quite strict on the nose, certainly a lot more restrained than the Chambolle Village, with tight-knit loamy aromas. The medium-bodied palate presents crushed blackberry and cranberry fruit, a fine bead of acidity and impressive substance on the finish considering this is a Village Cru. A finely crafted Gevrey from Boillot that will last longer than I suspect many will allow.
