Viniou Reviews

The 2017 Sylvie Esmonin Gevrey-Chambertin is a splendid example of a classic red Burgundy wine. Crafted from 100% Pinot Noir, this wine hails from the renowned Côte de Nuits subregion in Burgundy, specifically the Gevrey-Chambertin appellation. 2017 was a favourable year for Burgundy wines, characterised by a warm growing season that resulted in early harvest with grapes showcasing ripeness and balance. This wine benefits from the rich terroir of Gevrey-Chambertin, which is known for its complex limestone and marl soils that lend distinctive minerality and elegance to the wine. The vinification process embraces traditional Burgundy winemaking techniques while respecting organic principles, which allows the purity of the fruit to shine through.

Burgundy, and particularly the Côte de Nuits, enjoys a continental climate with distinct seasons that play a crucial role in developing the Pinot Noir's intensity and structure. The history of Gevrey-Chambertin is deeply intertwined with its reputation as one of the most prestigious vineyards in the world, known for producing robust reds with excellent aging potential.

When considering food pairings, this Gevrey-Chambertin will beautifully complement a range of dishes. The wine's earthiness and delicate tannins pair wonderfully with game meats like duck or venison. A classic boeuf bourguignon, a regional dish, would enhance the wine’s savoury and mushroom notes. For a vegetarian option, consider a wild mushroom risotto or roasted root vegetables to emphasise its earthy characteristics.

For serving, it's essential to let this Gevrey-Chambertin breathe to full effect. Decanting it for about an hour will allow its flavours to open up. Serve it slightly below room temperature, ideally between 16-18°C, to fully appreciate its aromatic complexity and depth. This wine promises a delightful experience, whether drank now or after a few more years of maturation.
