Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru "Les Cazetiers", Domaine Faiveley, Burgundy, FR, 2021 (7th generation Faiveley family)WS 94Pts.
Alluring for its exotic spice aromas and strawberry, cherry and floral flavors, this silky, inviting red is balanced, with vanilla and toasty oak notes lingering on the aftertaste. Approachable now, this should improve in the next year or two.
