Taupenot Merme, Gevrey Chambertin Size:12x750ml (90-92)/2012+(from Craite Paille, Les Seuvres, Belair and La Justice). This is also relatively elegant and cool with its combination of wild red cherry, sauvage and discreet spice whiffs. The precise and almost lilting middleweight flavors possess a lovely sense of tension while displaying fine length on the youthfully austere and balanced finale. This could arguably use a bit better depth, but more should develop with a few years of keeping.
