As usual, Mortet blended his holdings in Petite Chapelle, Cherbaudes and Bel-Air to produce the 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru, a fine bottling in the making, exhibiting aromas of red berries, forest floor, orange rind and black truffle. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, elegant and integrated, with powdery tannins and a lively core of fruit.
