2002 Latricieres Chambertin

Good deep red. Pure but subdued aromas of raspberry, minerals and licorice; less obviously ripe than the Mazis. Tightly wound and penetrating, with red fruit and licorice flavors firmed by brisk acidity. In a distinctly harder, more minerally style than the Mazis, more dominated by its structure and much less accessible today. This will need a good seven or eight years of cellaring.
