Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice La Vougeraie 2012

The wine

The La Justice Gevrey-Chambertin is produced in several plots, including La Justice, located at the edge of the village. It is élevaged in barrels for a little over a year (with about 1/3 new wood). This wine offers strawberry and blackberry aromas, with notes of game and undergrowth. Powerful and concentrated, the wine is solid in the mouth, but the tannins remain extremely refined. This great wine for aging will combine very well with red meat or game.

About the Producer La Vougeraie
