2022 Gevrey-Chambertin, Les Cazetiers, Maison Benjamin Leroux

The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru contains two-thirds whole bunches, which guides the nose at the moment, though it is simpatico with the fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with a supple entry, a fine bead of acidity, gentle grip and more dark berry fruit laced with black tea on the finish. Very fine. ~ (93) Neal Martin, Vinous 10-1-2023

This is also markedly floral in character with its blend of spice, the sauvage, plum, black cherry and underbrush notes. There is excellent volume to the delicious and muscular medium-bodied flavors that display an abundant minerality on the youthfully austere, balanced, dusty and beautifully long and firm finale. This too possesses excellent development potential. ~ (94) Allen Meadows, Burghound 4-10-2024
