Critic tasting note: "A cool and fairly rainy season produced a rather faint Chambertin for a wine which has always been one of the boldest from the Grand Cru of Cote de Nuits. The color is a very lovely, luminous ruby while the complexity of the bouquet is discreet, perhaps more dominated by floral, slightly vegetal notes even if the typical scents of wild berries and the classic aromatic ones are clear and distinguishable. The mouthfeel is a little diluted and the excellent acidic component is only in part upheld by the structure." - 92/100, Doctorwine

- Vineyard Notes
-
The grapes for this Chambertin Grand Cru come from three vineyards in the east-facing Chambertin appellation, and from a fourth vineyard, 'Larrey', a north-south parcel at the edge of the woods. The layout of this vineyard is such that it can only be cultivated using a horse and plough. The soil has a very high limestone content. At the top of the Clos it lies on Bathonien calcerous clay and halfway down on crinodial limestone and marl from the Bajocian age. The stones are spread out unevenly

When to drink: 2014 to 2038
2008 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2023
Strong ruby, purple reflections, broader ochre ightening on the rim. Fine red wild berries, sour cherries, delicate floral nuances of dried rose petals, hints of raspberries, liquorice and candied lime zest in the underlay, fine herbal savouriness, accessible bouquet. Juicy, medium complexity, carried by fine fruit and minerality, integrated tannins, clearly in harmony with bottle ripeness. Has now entered the first drinking phase but definitely has further ageing potential. (12/22, drink/age - 2045).
