Tasting Notes

Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 30 Apr 19
Aromas of rose petal, cherries and raspberries mingling with nuances of warm spices and dark chocolate preface the 2016 Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru, a full-bodied, layered and richly textural wine that's broad shouldered and powerful, framed by supple tannins and bright acids. Of all Pierre Duroché's 2016s, this is the most youthfully reserved and will require the most cellaring to attain its plenitude.
Drinking Date: 2024 - 2065

Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Apr 23
The 2016 Chambertin-Clos de Bèze Grand Cru has improved since I tasted it at the domaine. Fragrant on the nose, dark berry fruit and tobacco hints emerge from the glass, almost reluctantly gaining mineralité alongside a nuanced marine scent. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannin, very pure, the red fruit suffused with blood oranges, fanning out wonderfully on the finish. Give this four to five more years, and it will be firing on all cylinders. Tasted at the Clos de Bèze vertical at La Cobotte.
