2013 Gevrey-Chabertin 1er Cru, Aléa, Domaine Trapet

"Heavy reduction renders the nose impossible to assess. There is fine intensity and excellent size, weight and detail to the more mineral-driven medium weight flavors that possess that lovely sense of underlying tension before culminating in an austere, saline and impressively persistent finish. This is old school Gevrey in style with pronounced youthful austerity and in this case patience is going to be required before it’s ready for prime time drinking." Burghound
