Excellent lesser known red burgundy (albeit produced by a very well known and respected producer, Faiveley). Really good value.

Gevrey-Chambertin, Joseph Roty 2007
Aug-1-2009
Joseph Roty is a top-flight fine wine producer in burgundy. Drinking earlier than most, this wine is excellent now, still in its youth, and will cellar well for up to 10 years. Lots going on here: plenty of rich, up-front black fruits, supple and luscious.
