Gevrey Chambertin Petite Chapelle Premier Cru 2022

The 2022 Gevrey Chambertin Petite Chapelle Premier Cru from Philippe Pacalet showcases the refined character of this well-situated premier cru while reflecting Pacalet's naturalist winemaking philosophy.

The nose is complex and sophisticated, offering ripe red and black fruits, with cherries and wild berries predominating, enhanced by subtle spice notes and an underlying mineral tension characteristic of this site. The aromatic profile captures both the warmth of the 2022 vintage and the natural precision Pacalet achieves through minimal intervention.

On the palate, the wine displays impressive depth while maintaining elegance. The texture is particularly refined - silky yet structured, with fine-grained tannins providing sophisticated support. The limestone soils contribute precise mineral definition, while the warmth of 2022 brings beautiful ripeness without compromising finesse. The finish is long and detailed, with waves of fruit, spice, and mineral notes that continue to unfold.

This wine brilliantly demonstrates both the refined nature of Petite Chapelle and Pacalet's commitment to transparent, terroir-driven winemaking in what proved to be an excellent vintage.
