1999 Varoilles Gevrey-Chambertin Clos des Varoilles

Same colour as the 2000. It’s confirmed – the nose again showing high tones over a red cherry base, just hint of spicy development on this wine too. Nice mouthfeel, concentrated with good acidity. The tannin clings to your gums, but they’re finely grained. A very good finish – will be a good wine.

Deep ruby with a slightly cherry rim. Coffee and dark cherry fruit. Fresh palate due to good acidity light to medium grainy tannins but a nice penetrating finish. I would have preferred more fat for a 1er Cru but this wine has lovely complexity. It will be interesting to see how it develops.
