Domaine Rene LeClerc Gevrey Chambertin 2013
We tasted a variety of great Burgundy yesterday. Included in that tasting was Rene LeClerc Gevrey Chambertin 2013. This is one of the legendary wines of this very legendary appellation. I have not seen it for sale in the United States since my time at Marty's. This Burgundy is incredible. The purity of the cherry is simply over the top. The fruit is electric and very red. Layers apron layers of extremely exotic Asian spices are pronounced throughout the outstanding length of this Leclerc. We have 50 bottles available, correction only 24 left!! We can offer them at $69. 5% off 6, 10% off 12.
That is a steal . At least at the table today, the Leclerc Gevrey out shined the Meo Camuzuet Clos de Vougeot pictured below and we pay $275 wholesale for the Clos de Vougeot. The best of the season! Rex
Do not know if you guys remember the Prieure Gevrey...this is every bit as good or even better. There were only 46 left - now only 24 left!!!! I bought some for our holidays!! I remember during the tasting Rex said he could drink this wine all day long....this is one of my markers of a great wine...drink all day, food or not, it is spectacular. Michele
