2023 Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice Domaine Henri Felettig

He likes the vintage in Gevrey because there was enough rain. 2023 provided the best grapes he can remember since starting in 1994 in these vines. Gilbert has made 9 barrels instead of just 400 litres in 2024. A bright ruby purple. The fruit hovers between raspberry and strawberry – normally more of the latter here – and is beautifully juicy on the palate. An elegant finish with good acidity, refined raspberries showing through.

The 2023 Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice has turned out brilliantly, bursting with aromas of sweet berries, orange zest and rose petals. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, with a succulent core of fruit and soft, powdery tannins, it's the finest rendition that Felettig has produced from this site to date.
