A blend of grapes from four vineyards in the appellation where the vines are between 60 and 90 years old. This is wonderfully aromatic with whiffs of strawberry and brambles but also having a distinct discretion and subtlety that begs further ageing. Gentle hints of 30% new oak and a lovely tannic structure frames a truly excellent wine.

Jasper Morris 90-92
50% whole bunch vinification, and 25-30% new wood. A deeper crimson purple. The fruit swells on the bouquet, ripe cherry style, dominating the whole bunch element. A notable sweetness of fruit then freshened up with the white pepper tingle. Deep red cherry with a little strawberry, plump fruit right across the palate, very well balanced with impressive density. Medium plus persistence.
JancisRobinson.com 16.5
Cask sample. Fine tannins. Typical earthiness of Gevrey. Crisp dark fruit. Elegant and textured. A classy village Gevrey.
Anticipated maturity: 2023-2028

2021 Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, Champonnet 6x75cl
Juicy black cherry flecked with black pepper and clove follow the seductive, open aromatics that a whole-bunch fermentation approach provides. Intensely flavoured, firmly structured, finishing long and savoury. Great ageing potential in the 2021. (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2021 Philippe Livera (Tilleuls), Gevrey-Chambertin, Clos Village 6x75cl
Darker, more savoury, explosive and spicy, much more muscular and structured than the previous cuvées - we are getting into 1er Cru territory here yet retaining the precision and purity of fruit cosseted in fleshy, juicy texture that is, in my opinion, the hallmark of the estate.

2020 Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, Champonnet 6x75cl
A powerful yet delicate, beautifully balanced ripe cherry nose leads you to a perfectly crafted juicy and slightly spicy palate with gentle hints of a freshly lit “Romeo y Julieta” wafting through. This is a serious wine with great class and finesse. Be sure to let alone a while before drinking and reward your patience beyond all expection.

2020 Philippe Livera (Tilleuls), Gevrey-Chambertin, Clos Village 6x75cl
A new find for Mr.Wheeler in the 2019 vintage and one we are pleased to follow since then; Domaine Livera is widely considered the “next Burgundian star” tellingly both by consumers of their... exceptional wines together with their winemaking contemporaries. The Livera family have been settled on the Domaine for almost 100 years, but Damien, who has been in charge for 13 years now, has taken the wines to a different level altogether. His style is one of purity, precision of fruit and impressive depth, quite reminiscent of the wines produced by Arnaud Mortet (who is a close friend and advisor). This is an up-and-coming address and very much one to watch.
At the very centre of the Gevrey commune is Le Clos Village, a vineyard that enjoyed a particularly successful cuvée in 2020. In Philippe's hands, it is full of explosive energy with a depth of flavour to rival that of the better premiers crus, and a Gevrey easily meeting the expectations of a great village cuvée. And then some. Length is particularly impressive here, with real ambition and structure to see it safely through most of its second decade.

2019 Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, Champonnet 6x75cl
"Delicious gorgeous purple. 100% whole bunch but smothered by the fruit. A balanced headiness if you like, and beautifully attractive. The stems add a little structure, almost some muscle to the back, which I think is valuable in these richer years." 92-95 pts., Jasper Morris MW

2021 Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini, Gevrey-Chambertin, Vieilles Vignes 6x75cl
Sourced from 65-year-old vines, minty notes and a hint of liquorice open up this classic expression of Gevrey in which whole-bunch vinification give its seductive aromatics further lift. The oak... regime is delightfully modest, allowing a greater depth to the wine's dark, cherry-fruit core that is articulated by delicate but firm tannins. An exceptional pinot. (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2019 Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, La Perriere 6x75cl
Darker fruit, 50% whole bunch, one third new wood which is standard for the Heresztyn 1ers crus. More crimson than purple. Fine even red purple, a little spice at the back, maybe a touch meaty too, good weight a medium bodied Gevrey with some persistence.

2021 Philippe Livera (Tilleuls), Gevrey-Chambertin, Les Evocelles 6x75cl
This year Les Evocelles is particularly mineral, linear and precise, and while it continues in the very moreish juicy style of the Domaine there is excellent ripeness and power, and oodles of the Gevrey liquorice notes to accompany the ripe cherries. So delicious, and ambitious, too. (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2021 Domaine Rossignol-Trapet, Gevrey-Chambertin, Vieilles Vignes 6x75cl
"The care and effort that goes into assembling this village Gevrey is second to none. Wines from ten or more small parcels are carefully woven together, with each complimenting the other. Light stony... soils bring a subtle elegance, body and robustness comes from a selection of clay-based vines and complexity and fine structure from fruit taken from land abutting the grands crus. This year is again masterful displaying a powerful and robust ripe cherry nose that unfolds in the mouth to give a spicy elegant expression of pure pinot fruit. The tannic ramparts bode well for excellent medium-term ageing, and all together this is genuinely a true pleasure." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

Opened, approachable and again with a core of red fruit, suggesting a relatively early picking for preserving freshness and poise. Contiguous with the 1er Crus, it is widely thought that Evocelles was not included in that classification only because most of the vineyard is in Brochon rather than Gevrey. Certainly the complexity and mineral finish point to a terroir of some class, and the relatively high altitude serves it well in this warm vintage. Well worth considering as a great-value option to the premiers crus.
