Domaine Humbert Gevrey Chambertin VV 2021 (1x75cl)

Domaine Humbert Gevrey Chambertin VV 2021 is village-level Gevrey-Chambertin, made from Pinot Noir. The VV on the label stands for Vieilles Vignes, meaning old vines - the fruit comes from the estate's older plantings.

Gevrey-Chambertin sits in the Cote de Nuits and its reds are usually the firmer, darker end of Burgundy, which is why it suits a proper sit-down meal - beef, duck, mushrooms - more than a light lunch. A recognisable name if you are buying for someone who follows Burgundy. Free Hong Kong delivery over HK$800, flat HK$80 below that.

Tasting notes

Gevrey-Chambertin usually shows darker red and black cherry with an earthy, savoury edge, and typically carries more structure and grip than lighter Burgundy villages. Give it an hour open, or decant it, if you are drinking it young.
