Tasting note
Note: a little known 1er that sits directly above Chambertin-Clos de Bèze made from vines planted in 1973. This is notably riper with aromas of spiced plum and mocha that slide gracefully into rich and relatively full-bodied flavors that possess good power and an attractive mineral hint that continues onto the robust finish where the ripe tannins coat the palate. This should age well and need a minimum of a decade to reach its apogee. Drink [from] 2021. Score - 90-92. (Allen Meadows, burghound.com, Jan. 2011)
