laying-down2016 Gevrey-Chambertin, Symphonie, Domaine Alain Burguet

The scale of Eric’s distress is underlined by these numbers: normally he would make around 70 barrels of this; in 2016 he has 11. From vines over 40 years old and from an astonishing 23 different plots (including La Justice, Etelois, Créot etc), this has a lot of class and plenty of dimension. No new oak this year; Eric likes its more aromatic side to show. Drink 2019-2022.
