2023 Perrot-Minot Gevrey Chambertin

The 2023 Domaine Perrot-Minot Gevrey-Chambertin is a beautifully crafted village-level Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy’s most meticulous and respected producers. Sourced from the La Justice and Les Seuvrées vineyards, this wine combines the power and structure typical of Gevrey-Chambertin with the finesse and elegance that have become hallmarks of Christophe Perrot-Minot’s winemaking. Careful vineyard management, partial whole-bunch fermentation and restrained oak use allow the purity of the fruit and terroir to take centre stage.

The nose reveals wild blackcurrant, crushed cherry and raspberry alongside hints of orange zest, spice, forest floor and subtle mineral notes. The palate is refined and energetic, with vibrant red and dark berry fruit supported by fine, silky tannins and fresh acidity. Concentrated yet beautifully balanced, it finishes long and persistent with impressive depth and a savoury edge that promises excellent development in bottle.

Ben’s Recommendation:
A superb Gevrey-Chambertin that captures both the power and elegance of the appellation. Its balance of fruit, structure and complexity makes it a wonderful match for duck, roast lamb, game birds, mushroom dishes and classic French cuisine. Enjoy from 2028 onwards for maximum expression, or cellar through 2034 and beyond as additional savoury and earthy complexity emerges.
