BRUNO CLAIR GEVREY CHAMBERTIN 1ER CRU LES CAZETIERS 2019

Les Cazetiers sits at the northern edge of Gevrey-Chambertin's premier cru belt, sharing a boundary with Clos Saint-Jacques yet consistently trading at a fraction of the price — one of the Côte de Nuits' more overlooked value propositions. Bruno Clair works this limestone-rich, east-facing slope with whole-cluster fermentation and aging in French oak, preserving the site's naturally firm structure. The 2019 opens with rose petal, clove, and white pepper before mulberry and raspberry take hold on a medium-bodied palate, finishing with sinew, grip, and good cellaring potential.
