Domaines Pierre BOURÉE Fils (Gevrey-Chambertin) and Philippe NADDEF (Fixin) -- 2018 Tasted from Barrel Samples

Two less well-known producers that may be of interest.


Pierre BOURÉE Fils

2018 Charmes-Chambertin
Dark fruits, broad, medium acidity, but not the precision of a still better wine. (89-91)

2018 Chambertin-Clos de Bèze
Dark fruits, concentrated, medium acidity, some salinity. Good, but not great. (93-94)



Philippe NADDEF

The heavy extraction that caused me to stop visiting after the 2002 vintage is no longer evident in these wines.

2018 Gevrey-Chambertin    1er Cru   Cazetiers
Minerality, lightness on palate, red and dark fruits, smooth texture, medium-light weight. (91-93)

2018 Mazis-Chambertin
Nutshell/oak nose. Concentrated in mouth, but lightness. Dark fruits, but lacks the depth of still better wine. (91-94)
