| WA 95 (12/1989): The Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers was on par with the great wines from the Domaine de la Romanee-Conti. The fabulously exotic, rich, multidimensional bouquet was followed by gorgeous layers of extract, layer upon layer of smoky, herb-tinged fruit flavors, soft tannins, a full body, and a finish that must last several minutes. It is a wine that can be drunk young, but will certainly last for a dozen or more years. |

WA 94 (12/1989): The 1988 Gevrey-Chambertin Combe aux Moines is a compelling wine, although I did not think it had quite the extra measure of depth of Les Cazetiers. Perhaps it is simply more backward and the depth will emerge in time. It is truly a great expression of Gevrey-Chambertin, with its wild, savage, animal-like bouquet that exhibits exotic spices, sweet, toasty oak, and powerful, black cherry aromas. In the mouth, it is awesomely concentrated, full bodied, rich, and long with the potential to last for another 7-12 years.
BH 91 (10/2010): A notably ripe and now fully secondary nose speaks of deep dark berry fruit, sous bois, earth and intense animale notes that also are abundantly evident on the big, powerful and very rich broad-scaled flavors that possess a velvety mouth feel on the mineral-driven and impressively long finish. As is true of virtually all Leclerc wines, this is not an elegant effort, indeed it is overtly robust and rustic as it is fashioned in an old school style. Still, this certainly does not lack for character and is actually quite satisfying. |
