One of my projects that was put on a back burner because of Covid was an exploration of the beautiful premier cru terroir of Petite Chapelle, once every bit as treasured in Gevrey as Clos St. Jacques. Tasting this beautiful young 2020 version from the Rossignol family has me excited to get the pandemic finally behind us and get rolling on that article! The wine here is again strikingly red fruity and perfumed for the vintage, offering up a nose of red plums, red and black cherries, raw cocoa, woodsmoke, a beautiful base of soil tones, gamebird, a deft foundation of vanillin oak and a hint of balsam bough in the upper register. On the palate the wine is deep, full and precise, with a beautiful core of pure fruit, lovely transparency and bounce, suave tannins and a long, vibrant and soil-driven finish. Fine, fine juice in the making. (Drink between 2033-2085)
