Gevrey Chambertin La Justice 2022

The 2022 Gevrey Chambertin La Justice from Philippe Charlopin exemplifies the approachable charm of this lieu-dit, situated in the northern sector of the appellation. The deeper soils of La Justice typically yield wines of generous character while maintaining true Gevrey typicity.

The nose is immediately welcoming, offering bright red fruits and classic Gevrey spice notes, with subtle earthy undertones adding complexity. The aromatic profile shows the ripeness and warmth of the 2022 vintage while retaining freshness and clarity.

On the palate, the wine displays appealing richness and accessibility, characteristics typical of La Justice's terroir. The texture is silky and harmonious, with supple tannins providing gentle structure without astringency. The deeper soils of the site contribute to the wine's generous mid-palate, while maintaining the mineral undertone characteristic of Gevrey-Chambertin. The finish is persistent and balanced, showing good length and integration.

This wine beautifully captures both the warmth of the 2022 vintage and the inviting nature of the La Justice vineyard site.
