Gevrey-Chambertin AOP - Domaine Chanson

In the glass, the Gevrey-Chambertin of Domaine Chanson shows a bright light red color. If you give it some air in the wine glass by swirling, you can perceive a first-class balance in this red wine, because it does not stand out on the glass walls watery or syrupy or liqueur-like. To the nose, this Domaine Chanson red wine reveals all manner of sour cherries, strawberries and raspberries. As if that were not already impressive, vanilla and tobacco join in due to the aging in small wooden barrels.

This wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor. It was bottled with exceptionally little residual sugar. As you would expect from a wine icon wine segment, this Frenchman naturally enchants with the finest balance despite all dryness. Excellent taste does not necessarily require a lot of sugar. Balanced and complex, this dense red wine presents itself on the palate. In the finish, this youthful wine from the Burgundy wine-growing region finally thrills with considerable length. Again, hints of strawberry and sour cherry appear.
