Gerard Raphet Les Combottes 'Cuvee Unique', Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, France 2019 Les Marrans pulsing acidityA more elegant, airy and slightly fresher nose offers up cool notes of earth, spice, plum and wild red berries. The equally cool and pure middle weight flavors possess a beguiling sense of underlying tension as well as a lovely minerality on the balanced and nicely long finish. This lilting effort is also really quite pretty and has the stuffing to reward a decade of cellaring, perhaps even a bit more. 92 Pts Burghound
