"The impressive Gevrey-Chambertin exhibits rich, sweet spice, cherry and tobacco flavors with a long finish."  Wine Spectator, August, 2007. 

Wine Maker:  "
Jadot Gevrey-Charmbertin shows the qualities characteristic of the commune (region):  deep color, with a multi-faceted berry and red fruit bouquet, a full, tannic structure and mellow texture carry into a lasting finish.

This powerful and perfumed wine requires elaborate and strong-tasting food:  leg of lamb, boeuf bourguignon, game pâtés, strong cheeses."

Wired For Wine:  Gevrey-Chambertin is frequently thought of as the King of Burgundy...a fitting description as its wines have unquestionable concentration and strength while maintaining their regal Pinot character. Gevrey-Chambertin tends toward darker fruits and power, with tannins that are more sophisticated than wines of other villages which at times sacrifice grace when achieving extraction. Gevrey-Chambertin is arguably the finest example of the surprising intensity that Pinot Noir can achieve in the most special terroirs.
