Tasting

To the eye

A deep ruby colour

Nose

An elegant and complex bouquet. It features stewed black fruits (blackberry, blueberry), notes of liquorice and musk, and a hint of subtle roasted notes. Upon aeration, aromas of woodland undergrowth, black truffle and wilted peony add a fascinating tertiary dimension.

Palate

The wine is rich and ‘full-bodied’ in the finest sense of the word, underpinned by tannins which, after 20 years, have developed exceptional velvety smoothness whilst retaining a solid backbone. It is a wine of depth, where the limestone minerality complements the fruit’s richness.

Pairing

A top-class wine to accompany a hare stew, a piece of beef braised in red wine, or a distinctive cheese such as a well-matured Cîteaux. In 2026, at the age of 21, the wine will be at its peak. It is recommended that the wine be decanted for an hour to allow its full aromatic complexity to unfold.

Aging potential

Ready to drink, it is superb right now and will remain at this peak of maturity for the next 15 years.

Your questions, our answers.

Does the 2005 vintage guarantee that this bottle is at its peak today?

No: the concentration, tannins, and acidity described indicate a wine built for ageing, but they are not enough to determine its current stage. The information provided does not make it possible to establish either a peak drinking date or how much ageing potential remains.

Is this a good choice if I’m looking for a light, supple Gevrey-Chambertin?

That is not the profile described: this 2005 is described as athletic, deep, and endowed with monumental tannic structure. It is better suited to someone seeking concentration and structure than someone looking for lightness.

Is Mes Favorites a good choice for discovering the expression of a single vineyard site?

This cuvée is a blend of the estate’s favorite parcels, planted mainly with old vines. It therefore offers an introduction to a selection of terroirs brought together in a single wine, rather than the isolated expression of a single site.

What role does acidity play in such a concentrated vintage?

The description highlights high-quality acidity alongside the concentration and tannins. It is an important element of the wine’s balance and ageing potential: the appeal of this 2005 is therefore not limited to its power.

Is the ageing in oak presented as an aromatic signature or as part of the wine’s structure?

The description focuses mainly on its role in building an athletic, deep wine for ageing, with a moderate proportion of new oak barrels. However, no tasting notes are provided to clarify the prominence of oak aromas in the bottle today.

Mon français n'est pas excellent, mais Elodie m'a aidé par téléphone à faire un achat important pour offrir un cadeau pour le 60e anniversaire d'une amie. J'ai été très impressionnée par Elodie, et mon amie m'a informé que le vin était parfaitement emballé et livré par Elodie avec courtoisie et sourire. Merci Elodie - Tu as fait des fans aujourd'hui.
