Aux Combottes is one of the most prestigious plots in Gevrey-Chambertin. The 2010 vintage, crafted by Domaine Hubert Lignier, is a masterpiece that exudes the tension and refinement typical of a cool vintage. The pure aroma of red fruits is layered with nuances of spice and earth, while the delicate tannins and crisp acidity create a beautiful structure in the mouth. This elegant Gevrey quietly reveals the depth of aging and the unique character of the terroir.

Tasting Comments

Tasting Notes
The appearance is a deep ruby color with a slightly aged feel.

From the glass, delicate fruit aromas of raspberry and red cherry are layered with violet, black pepper, damp earth, and subtle nuances of black tea and dried herbs from aging.

The palate is supple, with the firm acidity typical of the 2010 vintage tightening the overall look, and the fine, fine tannins linger beautifully on the finish.

This wine has an excellent balance of fruitiness, acidity and minerality, and exudes the depth and elegance that is unique to Premier Cru.

Pairing
Roasted duck breast in red wine and light spice sauce
Roasted lamb with herbs
Mushroom risotto (with porcini and truffle flavors)
