A blend of Cazetiers, Combe Aux Moines and Poissenots, Jadot's one-off 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru wafts from the glass with aromas of sweet red berries, licorice, spices and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with good concentration, powdery tannins and a seamless, complete profile, it has turned out nicely.

The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has a far superior nose to the Morey-Saint-Denis Village, with bright red berry fruit laced with undergrowth. The palate is well-balanced with decent tannins. It's fleshy but has grip and purity towards the finish. This is clearly the finest Village Cru from Jadot this year and comes highly recommended.

Shows some heft, with cherry, earth, iron and tobacco notes enmeshed in the dense tannins. This is just a touch dry in the end, tailing off on the finish. Best from 2026 through 2038. 1,600 cases imported.
