Joseph Roty, Gevrey Chambertin Brunelle Size:12x750ml

Joseph Roty, Gevrey Chambertin Brunelle Size:12x750ml(Roty is one of two owners but is the only domaine that bottles an example). There is a hint of herbal tea present on the more deeply pitched nose of dark currant, earth and a hint of cassis. There is excellent volume to the velvety, round and seductively textured flavors that possess good punch and persistence along with fine depth on the mouth coating and very well balanced finale. This is good stuff though its clearly built to age. 90 2028+

It is lifted and vertical in feel

and there's an emphasis on Merlot character

with remarkable precision and class

The 2014 Masseto has taken quite a bit of time to start to emerge

chocolate-covered cherries

It was bottled in September 2019

with a round personality and the essence of smoke

100 cases made

A disappointment

the 2012 Châteauneuf du Pape Cuvee Réservée is a classic

plus and a lovely array of spice and floral elements

Here too plenty of patience will be required
