Pierre Bourée Fils – Vieille Vignes 2019 – Gevrey-Chambertin

The nose is fruity, full of balance/well-mastered and offers power, elegance and a certain intensity. It reveals notes of boysenberry, crushed blueberries and small notes of pulpy strawberry associated with touches of violet, small fruits as well as slight hints of sweet blond tobacco, local laurel/grove, toasted almond and sweet spices. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a mineral frame, suavity, a small complexity, a fine tension, a small stretched side, a small richness and a good definition. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy cherry, fresh/tangy blueberry and small notes of crunchy/fresh raspberry associated with touches of lilac, rose as well as fine hints of toasted hazelnut, almond, cardamom. Tannins are well-built, precise, finely mellow and racy.
