Review: Nuiton-Beaunoy Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru Clos du Chapitre Monopole 2021

From a Coravin-sealed mini-bottle, as explained here.

Sourced from a 2.4ha walled close fully owned by Nuiton-Beaunoy. This is a ripe year Burgundy, if quite embryonic. Gentle, syrupy, a teensy bit soupy, lovely primary raspberry fruits with darker wild strawberries underneath. Just a little bacon, low acid and looks ripe (you can see the 14% alc). Not quite the fireworks for this status, but an enjoyable drink every which way.
