I found both the 1991 Gevrey-Chambertin-Les Cazetiers and the 1991 Gevrey-Chambertin-La Combe aux Moines to be average quality wines, severe, with hard tannins, and in the case of La Combe aux Moines, a closed, tough, sharp, angular style. It is likely to lose its fruit long before its abrasive tannins. Interestingly, I preferred the premier crus from Chambolle-Musigny and Vosne-Romanee to the two from Gevrey-Chambertin.Faiveley enjoyed success in 1991, producing deeply colored, powerful, noticeably tannic wines. These are not wines to consume early, but rather to cellar for several years while the tannins melt away. I do not foresee any difficulty with most of these wines drying out because of excessive tannin as they possess the concentration of fruit necessary to support the tannin.NOTES ON THE 1992s FROM BARREL: Faiveley's 1992s are not as rich or intense as the 1991s. They are made in a soft, accessible, fruity style that consumers will be able to enjoy immediately.Importers: Ideal Wines & Spirits, Medford, MA and Henry Cavalier Selections, Boulder, CO.
