Profile & Story

Note on producer name: no 'Domaine Jouard' producing a Gevrey-Chambertin could be verified -- the well-known Domaine (Gabriel et Paul) Jouard is a Chassagne-Montrachet white-wine specialist with no Gevrey-Chambertin bottling. The closest verified real match is Domaine Henri (& Philippe) Jouan, a small 3-hectare family estate in Morey-Saint-Denis founded in 1962, now run by fourth-generation winemaker Philippe Jouan alongside his father Henri, using a century-old wooden press and minimal-intervention methods (unfined, unfiltered). Their sole Gevrey-Chambertin bottling, 'Aux Echézeaux' Vieilles Vignes, comes from an 80-year-old-vine parcel on the Morey-Saint-Denis border, fully destemmed with a short 12-14 day cuvaison and aged in François Frères oak barrels (25-40% new).

Tasting Notes

Earthy and savory with vibrant red and black cherry fruit, pomegranate, and a touch of woodsmoke from old, low-yielding vines. Restaurant's Notes: A silkier, more delicate style of Gevrey-Chambertin, showing bright fruit over a mineral, soil-driven core.

Pairing Recommendation

Good with braised meats, tarte tatin, or roasted red meat.
