The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Les Champerrier Vieilles Vignes has a crisp, slightly leafy bouquet with dark berry fruit laced with morels and truffle. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, simple but fleshy and well balanced with a little chewiness on the finish. Give this a couple of years in barrel.

About the producer
Situated in the village of Gevrey-Chambertin, Domaine Tortochot may not carry the cachet of the very top domaines in the village, but it does offer some of the best value, producing wines with great terroir transparency in their top Premiers and Grands Crus, and fabulous village wines.
