Gevrey-Chambertin Cuvée de Champs-Chenys Joseph Roty (Domaine) 1996

The wine

Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru Champs Chenys is elegant, distinguished and beautifully concentrated. The initial burst of fruit is then enhanced by Gevrey's mineral finish.

About the Producer Joseph Roty

The Joseph Roty domain is a family vineyard of 12 hectares, established for 11 generations on the communes of Gevrey-Chambertin and Marsannay, and today run by Joseph Roty and his son Philippe. It is undoubtedly one of the most famous Burgundy producers, even if any form of communication is refused and it does not appear to be looking for new, and in particular French, customers (85% of its wines are exported). Nevertheless, the rich and sensual style of its wines deserve their good rating in the Parker guide and the critics' regularly appraisal.
