2002 Domaine Denis Bachelet Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes

This has matured into a very pretty wine as the fully mature nose is elegant, pure, complex and airy with its notes of Gevrey earth, dried berries and sauvage hints. There is equally good complexity to the refined middle weight flavors that terminate in just a hint of astringency. Note that initially the balance is fine but with air the finish begins to dry out just a touch. In sum, I would be drinking this up over the next few years and I would further suggest serving it with an appropriate dish. Tasted several times with largely consistent results.
