The Gevrey-Chambertin was rather hard, lean, tough and charmless.
I have had little experience with the domaine of Jean Taupenot, but his wines are aged in 50% new oak barrels and half the grapes are destemmed prior to the fermentation. Based on the last several vintages, the wines tend to be very peppery, slightly herbaceous with a lot of ripe berry fruit. They also exhibit a great deal of texture and soft tannins in the finish.
