Gevrey Chambertin "La Justice" Domaine Domaine Marc Roy 2022

Domaine Marc Roy, Gevrey Chambertin

Standing in the heart of Gevrey Chambertin, this estate has passed from father to son for generations, yet the winemaking is now carried out by Marc's only daughter Alexandrine. She’s had a huge impact on the domaine, having previously spent time in other classic Pinot growing regions, such as Oregon, and New zealand. Although Alexandrine has no Grand or 1er Crus, her village wines are of a particularly high quality, coming from very old vines (70 year old for the Vieilles Vignes)

Vines for La Justice are over 50 years old and is located just behind the estate in the large alluvial fan from the Combe de Lavaut. Each vine is treated with meticulous care and only the most exceptional vines make the cut for this cuvée. The grapes used are predominantly “millerandées”—naturally small berries that offer greater concentration and intensity.

Expressive with notes of black berried fruits, cinnamon spice and earthyness. Plenty of body, with lovely concentrated fruit notes on the palate and finish. Fine grained tannins help balance this wine beautifully.

Grape: 100% Pinot Noir
