Wine Advocate-Parker : The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru La Perrière is showing quite well from bottle, offering up aromas of rose petal, potpourri and dark berry fruit that's quite marked by whole cluster fermentation. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with succulent acids, powdery tannins and an open-knit profile, concluding with a somewhat diffuse finish. This will offer a great deal of near-term charm, though it isn't especially profound and nor is it built for the long haul.
