Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Les Combottes Dominique Laurent 2002

The wine

This premier cru is the domain's "little jewel", offering superbly complex aromas and flavours after a little aeration. Notes of fruit (red and black berries), flowers, earth and even a little licorice afford it unparalleled sparkle and elegance. Not surprisingly, our recommendation is to cellar it for a few years before enjoying it with delicate dishes of character such as small game in sauce.

About the Producer Dominique Laurent

Having acquired a real reputation with the wines from his trade, since 2006, with the help of his son, Dominique Laurent has also created a small producer-farming establishment from vineyards leased to a winemaker of Vosne-Romanée. He does not deal with vinification but élevage and bottling. Nevertheless, he supervises vinification. The father and son like to work grape musts that have not been destemmed and to mature their wines without sulphur. They use new barrels, the signature of the maison. Dominique Laurent's entire range of wines is characterised by a high degree of purity and to be accessible to all ages. This recipe has proved its worth to fans all over the world.
