Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Aux Combottes 2011 from Domaine d’Arlaud has a well-defined and vibrant, quite complex bouquet with blackberry and raspberry fruit to the fore, well-integrated oak, sous-bois and spicy notes developing soon after. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannins. This feels a little rugged in the mouth, but not uncouth, with good acidity and “blocky” red berry fruit on the finish. Fine, but it needed more finesse to merit a higher appraisal.
