Gevrey Chambertin La Justice 2020

The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice from Philippe Charlopin exemplifies the distinctive character of this respected lieu-dit in the northern reaches of Gevrey-Chambertin. From vines planted in the deeper soils characteristic of La Justice's gentle slopes,

The wine unfolds with an inviting bouquet of ripe red fruits, subtle spices, and earthy nuances. On the palate, it displays remarkable harmony between generous red cherry and raspberry flavors, complemented by Gevrey's signature spice notes. The wine's structure is refined yet accessible, with supple tannins providing elegant support to the fleshy mid-palate. A subtle mineral undercurrent reflects the terroir, while the deeper soils of La Justice contribute to the wine's appealing richness and immediacy.

This is a wine that beautifully captures both Charlopin's skilled winemaking approach and the distinct personality of this esteemed lieu-dit, offering a compelling expression of Gevrey-Chambertin's northern sector.
