Gevrey-Chambertin, Humbert Frères, France ‘01

Grapes: Pinot Noir
Each: £25.00

Goes without saying that this is a fine example of its kin. Gevrey’s style is for fuller, more masculine wines. This is true to that pigeon hole but where structure can often dominate this has a very attractive balance with its feminine side. Good solid Burgundy, straight down the middle stylistically. The fruit is neither austere nor dominant, neither is the structure too hard or soft.
A real goldilocks wine – everything is just very, very right.
