Domaine de la Vougeraie Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice 2015 is a village-level Pinot Noir from a single vineyard located on the eastern side of the Gevrey appellation. The vines are farmed biodynamically and the 2015 bottling shows a profile of bright red cherry and floral notes with an underlying earthiness. It was aged in French oak barrels with a focus on preserving the wine`s natural freshness and lift. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and a clean mineral finish that reflects the alluvial soils of the site.

The 2015 Gevrey-Chambertin la Justice had been bottled the day prior to my visit. Despite that, it offers attractive redcurrant and cranberry scents, orange rind and hints of brown spice. I expect it will open up aromatically within a few days. The palate is tightly wound on the entry with juicy red berry fruit, cedar and undergrowth notes, just a pinch of white pepper and good depth and grip on the finish. This will gain cohesion with time - the components are all here for a very delicious Gevrey. - Neal Martin
Vinous
Moderately saturated medium red. More open-knit on the nose than the basic village cuvée but also more dominated by spicy oak. Then quite firm in the middle, offering flavors of redcurrant and dried flowers. Here the tannins are a bit dry and granular and will need some bottle aging.Stephen Tanzer1st January 2017
