Frederic Esmonin Gevrey-Chambertin 2023

$5699

The village-level entry from Frederic Esmonin and his parents Andre and Michele, a small family domaine in Gevrey-Chambertin that for decades sold fruit to the likes of Drouhin, Jadot, and Leroy before commercializing their own labels in 1988. (Not to be confused with Sylvie Esmonin or Michel Esmonin, different family branches.) The village bottling pulls from parcels around Gevrey and ages in around 20 percent new oak, so the fruit and the place do the talking. The 2023 is classic Gevrey at the entry tier: dark red fruit, a savory thread, and the muscle the village is known for, at a price that looks like a steal next to the bigger names.
