Score 89-91/100 · Drink 2020-2028, Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Dec 2017
The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Jeunes Rois was not affected by frost, just like La Justice. It certainly offers more fruit intensity with ample, almost buxom red cherries, crushed strawberry and raspberry scents, although maybe not quite the same precision. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannin, the stem addition lending a little graininess to the texture. There is pleasant, quite saline finish that just lingers on the aftertaste. Enjoy this well-crafted Gevrey-Chambertin over the next 5 or 6 years.

About the producer
Rene Bouvier
Domaine René Bouvier is a truly exciting estate in Marsannay – and one of a handful of properties bringing greater attention to a village once best known for its rosé.
