Joseph Roty, Gevrey Chambertin Fonteny other_regions_italy In contrast to the prior(from 80+ year old vines). A more restrained, fresher and notably layered nose offers up notes of black cherry, plum and spice that are trimmed in subtle wood treatment. The supple, refined and attractively mineral inflected medium bodied flavors possess fine depth and persistence on the dusty, austere and backward finish that is presently quite compact. This well made effort will definitely need time to unwind.
