2021 Domaine Humbert Gevrey Chambertin "Vieilles Vignes"

88-91 Allen Meadows, Burghound

A moderately toasty nose combines notes of red and dark currant with those of earth and forest floor characters. The rich, delicious and intense medium-bodied flavors possess very good mid-palate concentration while display solid length on the dusty, youthfully austere and more powerful finale.

89-90 points, William Kelley, Wine Advocate
More structured and concentrated than the Fixin, the 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes delivers notes of dark berries, cherries and spices, followed by a medium-bodied palate built around powdery tannins and lively acids. Old vines are a strong suit at this address, as they are with their cousins, the Dugats.

“Take a look at the Humbert wines: you'll thank me.”
- Allan Meadows, Burghound.com

"The strong point of the Humbert estate is once again, its remarkable series of first growths, elegant, authentic, highly recommendable. The production volumes are limited, as always with the Dugat."
- Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve

“The wines of the Humbert estate are distinguished by their elegance, their finesse and their aromatic power”.
