Domaine Bruno Clair Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Les Cazetiers

Heather thought just ahhh

very ripe, vibrant, pure cherry nose, spice, nice acidity, elegant, long finish. Tasted blind, the fruit on the nose was so vivid and forward, I thought this was California pinot Noir, possibly Kosta Browne, really shocked at the unveiling. had this wine in 2020, much less impressive that time.

I stand by my previous note. Perhaps up a notch in intensity and overall excitement.

dark red-brown 8-9 hours after uncorking and decreasing to mid shoulder: developed quality earthy & sous-bois secondary aromas. creating expectations. med-full body, high level of balanced tannins, good level of acidity & bitterness, good harmony, still ripe cherries flavours, savoury flavours, enjoyable with long aftertaste.

Bourgogne quartet round #1 meeting #2 (Cafe 48, Nahalata Binyamin, TLV - hosted by Mati) : transparent red-brown color tertiary aromas of red-fruits quite oxidized, mature, still some fruity notes, still drinkable, but beyond its time.

Bright, fresh, exciting, light on its feet. Very Gevreyish. Somewhat acidic balance spoils the show a bit. 91.

In a lovely place right now with a sweet perfume laced with meat and earth. There’s a hint of coffee and the wine has nice texture in the mouth with excellent authority to the finish. Should continue to develop but hard to keep one’s hands off the way it’s behaving today.
