Domaine Taupenot-Merme Gevrey Chambertin Bel Air 2017

Bel Air is one of those premiers crus that Burgundy lovers want to tell their friends about, so good (and comparatively unknown) are the wines from this fresher site.

This wine is a typically assured expression from Romain Taupenot, all lilac and rose petal aromas, zesty, zippy cranberry, redcurrant and raspberry fruit, and well-integrated one-third new oak.
