The 2013 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru has a backward nose at first, opening reluctantly with pure dark plum, briary and mineral notes, but keeping everything in fourth, rather than fifth gear. The palate is well integrated with the oak, touches of brown sugar tincturing the red cherry and raspberry fruit and leading to a nicely poised finish. This is one of the best Grand Crus from the domaine this year.- Neal Martin (12/2014)
This is intense, packed with cherry, berry, spice and mineral flavors and backed by a well-integrated structure. The tannins are dense and assertive, with brisk acidity playing in tandem. Finishes with mouthwatering fruit and mineral accents. Best from 2020 through 2040. 8 cases imported. — BS (11/2016)
