Jane Eyre Gevrey Chambertin 'Les Corbeaux' Premier Cru 2020

Burgundy’s next generation of talent isn’t necessarily Burgundy-born. Sometimes the breath of fresh air tradition needs can come from the other side of the world. Australian-born Jane Eyre joined her first harvest in Burgundy in 1998; the rest was history.

After a series of stages with lauded names such as Ernst Loosen in Germany’s Mosel and Frederic Mugnier in Chambolle-Musigny she began in 2011 making her own wines as a micro-negociant sharing winery space with none other than Dominique Lafon. With a style that recalls the elegance and intensity of fine Burgundy from the sisters Mugneret, Jane Eyre’s natural touch is both inspiring and irresistible. Crafted in limited quantities and by hand her wines capture the pure fruit and mineral essence of classically styled Burgundian grapes.

The Gevrey Chambertin Premier Cru 'Les Corbeaux' offers aromas of bright red fruit, violets and mulberry on the nose. The palate has racy acidity and structured tannins. Flavours of concentrated red cherries and cinnamon linger on the finish.
