(94-97 points) 80% new wood 25% whole bunch vinification. Dark imperial purple, there is a suavity about the nose which evokes this vineyard very well indeed. Marvellous depth of fruit on the palate, fine grained wood...

(94-98 points) Dense purple. Another nose that lacks freshness in the sample, but will be fine in the final wine. Plump deep raspberry, dense black fruit on the palate, inky and a little bit spicy, long and succulent...

96+ The 2014 Clos de Bèze had only been in bottle for three weeks when I had a chance to taste it at the end of my November trip, but this was probably close enough to the mise that the wine had not yet had a chance to...

Crazy aromas of smoked meat, white pepper, dried fruit, orange peel and flowers. Full body, round and chewy tannins and a flavorful and intense finish. Shows so much richness and depth. A great wine for the vintage.

(95-98 points) Brilliant dense purple. Really a magical stylish bouquet, very pure. Then an incredible density of pure rich purple fruit which soars across the palate. Really beautifully balanced with complex fruit notes...

(94-97 points) A blend of their own grapes plus those from a well-known grower in the appellation, made in the barrel, à la vinification intégrale. Far from the deepest colour, with a really stylish nose, some...

(95-97 points) The 2018 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru includes 30% whole-bunch fruit, though this is the one grand cru where you cannot detect the stem addition, just the copious dark cherry, raspberry, cedar and...

This is dense and tannic with beautiful bright fruit such as dried strawberry and mineral. Full body, chewy tannins and a long finish. Very muscular. Try it in 2020.
