The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Jeunes Rois offers up aromas of raspberries, plums and blackberries mingled with sweet soil tones and raw cocoa. Medium to full-bodied, supple and elegant, it's pretty and precise. Indeed, it's an unusually refined, fine-boned rendition of this reliably concentrated cuvée.

(from ~60-year-old vines that are also on the Brochon side). Soft wood influence sets off ripe aromas of plum, red currant a hint of the sauvage. The succulent, round and utterly delicious medium weight flavors possess better richness if not quite the same structure on the sneaky long finish. This is a relatively elegant wine in the context of what is typical for a Gevrey villages. Worth a look. (89-91)/2025+

The wines by fourth-generation Gilles Duroché and his son Pierre, are utterly transporting. Unmistakably Pinot Noir and inescapably Gevrey-Chambertin, the wines give a dynamic sense of place and can be seen as a masterclass in the style of the appellation. With exacting standards applied across the entire range, from the humblest Bourgogne up to the Grands Crus, Duroche has made a name for itself as one of the premier growers in this fabled region.
