Côte-de-Nuits

Gevrey-Chambertin

Gevrey-Chambertin lies 15km south of Dijon in the Côte de Nuits. The region takes its name from the village, Gevrey, and the appellation’s most prestigious vineyard, Le Chambertin. This village-vineyard naming convention is commonplace today, however, Gevrey-Chambertin set the trend, officially linking the two in 1847.

Covering approximately 550 hectares, it is one of the largest appellations in the Côte d’Or and certainly the largest appellations for reds; Pinot Noir is the only variety planted in Gevrey-Chambertin. Due to its size, the sub-region has a variety of terroirs – from gravels in the Vau de Combe to rich clay-soils on the northern côte – and produces a diversity of styles. Traditional viticultral and winemaking predominate, however, there has been growing trend towards more organic practices over the past two decades.

Gevrey-Chambertin has earned a reputation for producing Pinot Noirs with rich fruit and structured tannins. The best expressions see this intensity tempered with elegance, yielding concentrated wines with complexity and finesse.

Domaine Hubert Lignier Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru 'Aux Combottes' 2023

Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Hubert Lignier Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru ‘Aux Combottes’ 2023

A pure, elegant and attractively airy, even perfumed, nose reflects notes of mostly red cherry, spice and floral wisps. The punchy and super-sleek medium weight flavors also possess a striking mouthfeel with a more subtle bead of minerality, all wrapped in a balanced and impressively long finale. This is excellent with the development potential to match. ♥ Sweet spot OutstandingAllen Meadows, Burghound 92-94 PointsThe Geverey-Chambertin 1er Cru 'Aux Combottes' sits next to the Grand Cr

Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Hubert Lignier Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru ‘Aux Combottes’ 2022

More discreet wood influence more easily allows the elegant, and more floral, aromas of mostly dark pinot fruit to be enjoyed. The caressing but punchy medium weight flavors possess good mid-palate richness before terminating in a dusty, youthfully austere and well-balanced finale. This is lovely and very Combottes in character, which is to say refined but with focused power.Allen Meadows, Burghound 91-94 PointsThe Geverey-Chambertin 1er Cru 'Aux Combottes' sits next to the Grand Cru Lat

Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Hubert Lignier Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru ‘Aux Combottes’ 2016

A reserved but exceptionally elegant and wonderfully pure nose combines notes of plum, violet, spice, earth and a whiff of smoke. The sleek, refined and intense middle weight flavors are less powerful than the Morey 1er but notable finer, all wrapped in a balanced and sneaky long finish. This is a wine that should be approachable young but has the stuffing to age effortlessly.Allen Meadows, Burghound

Domaine Hubert Lignier Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru 'Aux Combottes' 2017

Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Hubert Lignier Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru ‘Aux Combottes’ 2017

Here too moderately generous wood surround the nose that is also relatively high-toned with its aromas of pomegranate, red cherry, various floral scents and soft spice nuances. The medium weight flavors possess a notably finer texture thanks to the relatively fine-grained tannins that also support the long and mildly austere finish that is on the compact side today. I expect this to add flesh and unwind as it ages and as is often the case, this is the best of Lignier's 1ers in 2017.Burghound

Domaine Hubert Lignier Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru ‘Aux Combottes’ 2018

"Here there is very good freshness to the cool and airy nose of essence of plum, earth, spice and a background application of wood. The lilting and lacy middle weight flavors possess a subtle underlying tension while the ever-so-slightly warm finish is shaped by very fine-grained tannins. This is an exercise in finesse as it is more refined than usual."Allen Meadows, Burghound

The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Aux Combottes sheds a touch of youthful reduction to reveal aromas of cherries, wild berries, exotic spices, forest floor and licorice.

With its eroded limestone walls covered in creepers and wild flowers, this is one of Gevrey's most picturesque vineyards. It is situated up high, on the border of Brochon next to Les Evocelles, in what is simply the most beautiful part of Gevrey. The vines here are now 80 years old and the soils are very stony with red clays, and the mother-rock very close to the surface.

Domaine Trapet Père et Fils Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru ‘Aux Combottes’ 2023

The high level of whole cluster vinification is very much in evidence as the aromatic profile is both exceptionally fresh and markedly floral in character with background nuances of red cherry, ripe raspberry and spice. The caressing, delicious and highly energetic medium weight flavors that display a more subtle minerality on the balanced, moderately austere and dusty finale. This is really quite stylish, indeed even classy and a wine that should also age effortlessly. ♥ Sweet spot Outstandin
