Importer notes from Becky Wasserman & Co.:

"Amélie Berthaut received an impressive array of vineyards from her mother and father who owned and managed separate family domaines. The newly-baptized Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet includes all the vineyards of Domaine Denis Berthaut and parts of the vineyards of Domaine François Gerbet, totaling 16 hectares located in the Hautes-Côtes de Nuits, in the villages of Fixin, Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambolle-Musigny, Vougeot, and Vosne-Romanée.

En Combe Roy’s total surface is 0.73 ha (1.8 acres.) Amélie owns 0.38 ha (0.94 acres) in the center of the vineyard with the domaine’s best massal selections, planted in the early 1960s. En Combe Roy faces east-southeast. Its slope is gentle. It sits at 300 to 310-meters elevation, just downslope from where Les Arvelets and Les Hervelets meet. It’s not a smooth continuation of the slope, however. A road separates En Combe Roy from the premier crus, and, as is often the case, the road follows a fault line. This one is particularly obvious: there is a two to three-meter depression from the road to En Combe Roy."

 Bright ruby purple. A bouquet of superb energy, this is startlingly fine. Lifted fresh red berries, not shocked by the recent bottling. Beautifully scented fruit on the palate with a fine long finish.
