2023 Forey Père et Fils Gevrey-Chambertin 'La Justice'This small but outstanding domaine was created in 1840 by the great grandfather of Rgis Forey, the current proprietaire. The 1987 vintage marked the entry of Rgis into the domaine on a full time basis and he became fully responsible for all aspects of production and winemaking with the 1989 vintage.
