The 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin from Philippe Pacalet is a gorgeous showing. It bursts open with fresh aromas of crushed strawberries, raspberries, rose pedal, spices, lavender, smoky ash and scorched earth. It shows fantastic balance backed by mouthwatering acidity from start to finish. Everything comes together beautifully on the pure, elegant finish. I would look to hold this for a few years at as it is sure to evolve. (Best 2017-2028)- September, 2014 (JD)
