Tasting Notes

Vinous Neal Martin - 21 Jun 22
The 1998 Chambertin Grand Cru has a leafier bouquet than the 1996 compared alongside, undergrowth and cracked black pepper, hints of peppermint, even a touch of liquorice. It does not quite have the breeding of the aforementioned 1996. The palate is smooth on the entry, fleshy with moderate depth. Mellow, cohesive, lightly spiced, surprising richness on the finish yet without the pedigree of the finest vintages. Tasted at the Rousseau Chambertin vertical at La Vienne.
