The 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin La Perriere comes across as young, vibrant and very tight. This is one of Pacalet’s most vibrant and energetic 2009s. Dark red cherries, flowers and crushed rocks flow through to the pointed, insistent finish. The Perrieres is all about power and minerality. It should start drinking beautifully in another few years. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2029.
