Description
Cuvée Bertin is named after Virgile’s son. It’s a blend of the lower vineyards of Creux Brouillard and Les Murots with Les Seuvrées, which is on the border with Morey-St Denis. Again this year Virgile has gone for 100% whole bunch. This has given the palate a very good, broad texture that fills the palate well. A smart wine from less blessed vines.

Critics reviews
From Les Seuvrées, Creux Brouillards and Les Murots.
There is sufficient reduction present to blur everything except pretty floral nuances. The full-bodied, concentrated, and generously proportioned flavours are plump and round, exhibiting good if not special, length on the rustic and mildly sweet finish.

With 100% whole bunches, the 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin "Cuvée Bertin" has a crisp, tertiary, slightly smoky bouquet that opens gradually. At this stage, it's always defined by the stems. The palate is medium-bodied with light tannins and black fruit laced with tobacco. A pinch of black pepper eases off towards a more elegant finish. Moderate length. Fine.

100% whole bunch vinification. Not so dark a purple, with a lively but soft fruit, more red than black, some strawberry, a little bit of black pepper, with a pleasing generous fruit at the back, with just a tannin or two. The strawberry style is typical of this sector Seuvrées, Creux Brouillard, Murots.)
