The 2011 Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru has a more complex bouquet than the Charmes with subtle scents of red cherries, red currant and pomegranate seed intermingling with vanilla pod. The palate is very well-structured, a little tighter than the nose suggests, but with superb grip on the finish. This is one of Mornir’s vin de gardes. Excellent. - Neal Martin (WA95-93)

Visible wood mixes with elegant, pure and restrained aromas of perfumed red pinot fruit that displays added depth in the form of Gevrey style earth and spice notes. There is a lightly smoky character to the mineral and soil-driven medium-bodied flavors that retain a fine sense of detail and verve on the long, complex and palate staining finish. This doesn't quite have the sheer depth of material compared to the Bonnes Mares but it's not far off. A classic Griotte that should merit at least a decade of cellar time. Drink: 2021+ (BH94-92)
