Tasting Notes
Robert Parker 90-92
"The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Jeunes Rois was more reticent on the nose than Pierre Duroche’s other nascent 2016s; however, there is fine complexity and mineralite already locked into this cuvee. Later there is a hint of licorice that adds another layer of complexity. The palate is medium-bodied and sports a caressing texture and a taut line of acidity. There is a spicy vein to this Gevrey-Chambertin, and after departing, the tongue is still fizzing with prenatal energy. I look forward to revisiting this after bottling, because this is a serious village cru."
Anticipated maturity: 2020-2030
