Mes Favorites, 'my favourites', is the old-vine village Gevrey that made Alain Burguet's reputation, drawn from parcels of Pinot Noir averaging over sixty years old. Old vines dig deep and yield little, and the result is a village wine with the concentration and detail of something further up the ladder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2021 was a cool, honest vintage in the Cote de Nuits, frost-reduced and low-yielding, which only adds to the concentration here. This is Gevrey in a more classical register, less about ripe fruit, more about perfume and precision. The Burguet family have farmed hard and kept yields low since Alain founded the domaine in the 1970s, and that discipline shows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe nose leans into red fruit with anise and a liquorice edge, scented and nuanced. On the palate there's fresh acidity, ripe but present tannin, and a layered finish that keeps going. Give it a couple of years to settle if you can. It's drinking well already, but it has the structure for the next eight to ten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Serve\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e16C in a Burgundy bowl.
