Tasting notes
Much like the Bonnes Mares, there is a plethora of floral elements adding a touch of elegance to the decidedly cool and airy aromas of wild berries, earth and a smoky component. There is excellent density and richness to the powerful and muscular yet relatively refined mineral-driven flavors that terminate in a youthfully austere, linear and built-to-age finale. Patience strongly recommended. (Drink starting 2036)

Beautifully elegant and refined, the 2021 Chambertin Grand Cru unfurls in the glass with aromas of orange zest, sweet red berries, cherries, violets, rose petals and spices. Medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, it's seamless and perfumed, with racy acids and a saline finish. As readers will remember, it comes from the southern extreme of Le Chambertin, from a parcel at the top of the slope that touches Latricières-Chambertin.
