Domaine Duroché
About Domaine Duroché
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, Duroché has made a name for itself as one of the premier growers in this fabled region.

Vinous (90-92)
The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Jeunes Rois has a little more reduction on the nose that made it a bit more difficult to read. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, a pinch of black pepper and a slight graphite note towards the persistent finish. This has real pedigree.Inc. VAT£190.79 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-93)
4 barrels were made from three quarters of a hectare, equating to 12 hl/ha. Another fine ruby colour. The nose is more flamboyant than for the straight Gevrey, red fruit with a floral edge. Delicious though on the palate with fair intensity in a lifted cherry raspberry style with excellent persistence. Drink from 2025-2030.Inc. VAT£708.80 -
Vinous - Neal Martin (91)
Bottled mid-December, the 2023 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Jeunes Rois, from vines planted in 1953, is 100% de-stemmed using a pied de cuve at the start of fermentation. The nose has kicked in nicely since I tasted it from barrel. Plump red cherries and blackcurrant scents seem to have developed a little more va-va-voom. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, very pure and silky in style, just a touch of sour cherry imparting tension. With fine persistence towards the finish, this is a delightful "young king."Inc. VAT£684.80 -
(6x75cl) 2010Vinous - Neal Martin (96)
The 2010 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru has compelling complexity on the nose with wonderful mineralité and terroir expression, hints of wild heather and bay leaf. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip, impressive balance and beguiling harmony. White pepper and curry leaf pop up unexpectedly towards the graceful finish. This is a very talented 2010 with long-term potential. Tasted at the Latricières vertical at La Cabotte, London.Inc. VAT£5,703.64 -
(6x75cl) 2014Vinous - Neal Martin (91)
The 2014 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru is armed with darker fruit than other vintages, fine presence, quite tertiary in style with subtle incense aromas. Sensual. The palate is medium-bodied with a fleshy and smooth entry, sweeter than anticipated though side by side the previous vintage boasts more complexity, especially on the finish that here is quite pastille-like. Fine. Tasted at the Latricières vertical at La Cabotte, London.Inc. VAT£3,745.24 -

The 2018 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru confirms all the promise it showed from barrel, wafting from the glass with a striking nose of cassis, wild berries and plums mingled with smoke, violets, coniferous forest floor and wilted rose petals. Full-bodied, velvety and seamless, it's deep and concentrated, with a deep, textural core of fruit that's underpinned by a lively spine of acidity that carries through the long, penetrating finish.Inc.

The 2020 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru was very impressive from barrel. In bottles, it's the real deal. Very fragrant on the nose with black cherries, raspberry coulis, hints of sous-bois and veins of blue fruit that all gain intensity with aeration. Precocious yet controlled. The palate has very pliant tannins, finely sculpted with impressive weight. Superb acidity and just a subtle twist of bitter cherry on its vivacious finish. Outstanding. Tasted at the Latricières vertical at La Cabotte, London.Inc. VAT£6,310.69 -
