Domaine Duroché
About Domaine Duroché
The wines by fourth-generation Gilles Duroché and his son Pierre, are utterly transporting. Unmistakably Pinot Noir and inescapably Gevrey-Chambertin, the wines give a dynamic sense of place and can be seen as a masterclass in the style of the appellation. With exacting standards applied across the entire range, from the humblest Bourgogne up to the Grands Crus, Duroché has made a name for itself as one of the premier growers in this fabled region.

Vinous (95)The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaut Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has certainly stepped up in intensity since I last tasted it. Redcurrant, cranberry, juniper berries and just a touch of mint, fine delineation with fine focus. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated tannins, perfectly judged acidity, a touch of allspice and white pepper, fanning out gloriously on the expansive finish. Time to raise my previous score. Tasted at Domaine Duroché. |

Wine Advocate (88-90)The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Village is a blend of a parcel from the north of the village of Gevrey, a parcel in Aux Etelois that is not selected for that cuvée, and fruit from Pressonnnier. It felt open on the nose with raspberry preserve and crushed strawberry scents. The palate is nicely balanced, bright and pretty in the mouth with a keen line of acidity, then battening down the hatches toward the tightly coiled finish that will open by the time of bottling. There is good potential here, but it will require a couple of years in bottle. |
