Domaine Gérard Raphet Gevrey-Chambertin ‘Champs Chenys’ ‘23

Domaine Gérard Raphet Gevrey-Chambertin ‘Champs Chenys’ 2023 is a soulful, small-production Pinot Noir from a remarkable vineyard nestled within a notch of grand cru Charmes-Chambertin. With vines ranging from 35 to 110 years old, this cuvée combines elegance and structure, offering silky textures and vivid flavors of red cherry, pomegranate jam, and blood orange, layered with spice and mineral notes. Hand-harvested and fermented with native yeasts, the wine is aged for 18 months in neutral French oak, then bottled unfined and unfiltered. This bottling captures the deep, earthy charm of Gevrey with a finesse that reflects Raphet’s understated style—traditional, terroir-driven Burgundy made with quiet mastery across four generations. Ideal with roast duck, mushroom dishes, or classic French fare like coq au vin.
