Starting out rather reserved, this red builds in intensity and complexity to the long, multifaceted finish. Cherry, blackberry, sandalwood, vanilla, iron and smoky spice aromas and flavors are the hallmarks, while the...

A fine clear crimson colour. The bouquet is taking time to emerge. Is there perhaps a hint of brett in this bottle – it is something I have very rarely found chez Rousseau. There is something that softens and sweetens the...

Fragrant, fluid and seductive for the silky texture, with cherry, floral, sandalwood and oak spice aromas and flavors. Well-structured yet deftly balanced, this feels effortless and graceful overall. Reveals licorice and...

96+ The 2018 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru has a magnificent bouquet. Dark berry fruit, crushed roses, minerals and incense soar from the glass. Wonderful definition. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins...

(93-95 points) The 2022 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru is the maiden vintage, the only cuvée Mortet does not farm himself, though he assured that he buys top quality grapes from the grower who owns a large part of the...

Fullish colour. Medium-full weight on the nose. High-toned, very classy, very well-balanced nose. Very lovely fruit. Fullish body. Pure and intense. Not the biggest of wines, but with a vigour and a depth of flavour which...

(94+ points) The 2019 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru has a little more concentration and what seems like more extraction on the nose than Faiveley's. Dark berry fruit, incense and veins of blue fruit emerge, perhaps...

(97+ points) The 2020 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru has a refined bouquet, beautifully poised with brambly red fruit, hints of sous-bois and incense. This is utterly seductive. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy...

Perfumed and spicy, this red exudes floral, sandalwood, wild strawberry, currant and sweet spice notes accented by menthol. Sleek and solidly built, with an ethereal component and lingering finish. Elegant overall, yet...

(91-94) A brooding and inexpressive nose reluctantly offers up attractively spiced aromas of dark cherry, raspberry and plenty of floral wisps. There is even better volume and mid-palate density to the solidly powerful...

(93-95 points) This too is firmly reduced. There is almost painful intensity to the beautifully delineated and mineral-driven broad-shouldered flavors that possess a highly refined textured before culminating in an almost...

The 2016 Chambertin-Clos de Bèze Grand Cru is showing brilliantly from bottle, unwinding with aeration to reveal a deep and brooding bouquet of plums, cassis and cherries mingled with notions of grilled meats, ceps...
