The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Coeur du Roy has also turned out very well in bottle, exhibiting aromas of plums, wild berries, sweet spices, peonies, orange rind and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, ample and layered, it's textural and concentrated, with bright acids and powdery structuring tannins, concluding with a long finish. This is even more charming and polished in style than I imagined it would be from barrel. - William Kelley

This is actually aromatically similar to the old vines Gevrey cuvée though with even better fruit density. There is lovely freshness to the delicious, vibrant and well-detailed flavors that exude evident minerality on the complex, lingering and balanced finale. The mid-palate is really quite fine, yet the finish is overtly robust. An impressive villages.
