Gelin Pierre

2005 Gelin Pierre Gevrey-Chambertin Clos des Meixvelle

By on July 31, 2007 #asides

Medium-plus colour. The nose is dense with herbal elements – bouquet garni – above pleasing black-shaded fruit. Compared to the previous wines, this has a real ‘executive’ texture and depth. The finish lingers well, shaded with black olive form the oak. This is very good.

2005 Gelin Pierre Fixin Clos Napoléon

By on July 31, 2007 #asides

Understated dark oak on the nose, width and a slowly developing red note. Plenty of velvet tannin here and the oak remains a subtle undertow to the rest of the flavours. It’s fresh, long and quite structured, in fact that structure is today a little in the ascendent, but this seems to have enough material to provide a longer-term balance.
