2019 Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet Gevrey-Chambertin Combe-du-Dessus #228070270
Reviews 91-93 points Vinous "The 10% stems lend just a very slight pepperiness, hints of dried blood emerge with time and complement the dark berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins. This is very harmonious and silky, the 20% new oak is seamlessly integrated with a persistent finish. (NM)" 89-91 points Burghound "Once again there is excellent freshness to the very pretty mix of upper and lower register pinot fruit with pungent earth, humus and subtle floral wisps. The succulent and again utterly delicious medium weight flavors possess lovely definition while delivering excellent length on the markedly firm and youthfully austere finale. (AM)"
