The Gevrey-Chambertin Meix-Bas 2013 by Pierre Naigeon reveals itself through a somewhat restrained bouquet. This hesitancy, however, merely piques the curiosity. Red fruits come to the forefront, followed by more elusive scents of blood and underbrush. Sipping it is a joyful affair: it bursts onto the palate with vivacity and a juiciness underpinned by delightful acidity, like indulging in a delectable candy. It's strikingly well-balanced with a velvety texture that flows seamlessly from sip to swallow. And just when you think it's done, it leaves behind a lingering aftertaste, reminding you of its depth and maturity. The wine's age is unmistakable, yet it carries its years with grace and allure.
