David Duband Gevrey Chambertin 2020

Painters use canvas and paint; David’s medium is limestone, clay, grapes, and oak. His wines transparently demonstrate the slightest differences in each terrior's shade and contour, further revealing each unique nuance of the year and terroir.

This wine is made from some of David’s oldest vines – averaging 70 years in age. Their deep roots were an advantage in 2020’s dry conditions, and the resulting wine is unsurprisingly concentrated. It is however far from rustic – but bright and vibrant, with the village’s typical structure. It’s deliciously dark-fruited but with a chalky freshness and crunchy, cranberry lift on the palate. Lively and charming, with a line of minerality, this is moreish Gevrey.

Complex nose of spices and strawberries with a touch of menthol. Medium-bodied palate with grainy tannins, light redcurrant and cranberry fruit with a fresh finish.
