Tasting notes
The 2014 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru has a pastille-like purity on the nose, very sensual for a Clos-de-Bèze with hints of marmalade and quince jus in the background. The palate is medium-bodied, a little disjointed on the entry perhaps, but there is good weight here and attractive notes of desiccated orange peel interlacing the red berry fruit on the finish. Let's see how this ages in bottle, because I am looking for a little more sustain on the aftertaste.

Medium red. Noble, cool aromas of black raspberry, blood orange, rose petal and crushed rock. Pristine, penetrating and youthfully imploded, conveying great urgency and a high pitch to its bracing flavors of red cherry, red berries, flowers and spices. Communicates a strong impression of dry extract but comes across as virtually weightless. Finishing with outstanding rising length and finesse, this aristocratic wine should evolve in bottle for a long time. Stunning and classic.
