Jane Eyre Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru Les Corbeaux 2020 is a lovely example of how this typically powerful Gevrey site can be shaped with finesse and restraint.

Les Corbeaux sits just below the grand crus on well-drained, stony soils, and often produces wines with structure and depth. In 2020 — a warm, dry vintage with small berries and naturally concentrated fruit — Gevrey delivered intensity and ripe tannins, but the best wines kept their balance and freshness. Careful picking dates were key, and here the fruit retains energy alongside its depth.

Jane Eyre’s wines, whether from Beaune, Nuits or Beaujolais, consistently reflect her distinctive style: charming and inviting, with supple tannins and soft yet bright fruit. Gentle extraction and a judicious use of new oak make them some of the more immediately appealing Burgundies in our portfolio, even from structured appellations like Gevrey.

What the critics say:

95/100Charles Curtis MW, Decanter

"Charming, with violet-scented raspberry fruit and mineral notes. The texture is firmly tannic and fresh, yet approachable. A lovely success from this premier cru right next to Mazis, where Eyre sourced fruit for two (used) casks which she fermented as 60% whole clusters, removing the thickest part of the stem."

OUR GROWERS

Jane Eyre

When we first met Jane in 2015, we were amazed to hear that her wines didn’t have a presence in the UK (with a name like Jane Eyre, how could we resist bringing her wines to the UK market?).

It’s been a real pleasure to see how her reputation has grown with accompanied critical acclaim from luminaries such as Jancis Robinson, Tim Atkin, and Neal Martin. More recently she received her RVF second star and was also awarded Negociant of the Year 2020.
