The nose is lively and well-defined, just joyful red cherry and strawberry fruit here. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannin, quite linear and structured, and with a fine line of acidity towards the finish.
The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Croix des Champs is more than 55% whole cluster. That stem addition comes across a little strongly on the nose and occludes the terroir profile. The medium-bodied palate offers firm tannins, plenty of red berry fruit laced with orange peel and slathers of marmalade, and a grippy finish with a light cola note on the aftertaste. Fine.
