The saturated dark-colored 2001 Gevrey-Chambertin En Motrot sports a superb nose of plummy blackberries and cassis. Broad, armed with wonderful palate presence, it coats the mouth with copious quantities of intensely flavored baked black fruits and firm tannin. Highly structured in the finish, yet dense, medium to full-bodied, concentrated, and immensely fruity, this is a bold, assertive wine. Projected maturity: 2004-2010.
