Tasting notes
Licorice, tar, roasted black fruits, dark cherries and wax make up the aromatic profile of the dark ruby-colored 2002 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Evocelles. Medium to full-bodied, exhibiting superb concentration and depth of fruit, this wine reveals copious quantities of wild herb laced dark fruits in its powerful personality. Its lengthy finish displays loads of wonderfully ripe tannin. Drink it between 2007 and 2015. Importer: Weygandt-Metzler, Peter Weygandt, Unionville, PA; tel. (610) 486-0800

(from a crop level of just 21 hectoliters per hectare, according to Dugat; aging in all new barrels) Deep ruby-red. Explosively fruity nose dominated by black raspberry. Supple, sweet and creamy, with a minerality that frames the wine's dark fruit flavors. Shows terrific inner-palate energy, and the thoroughly ripe tannins that characterize Dugat's 2002s.
