Chambertin Clos de Bèze - Wine
Grape Variety
100% Pinot Noir
Food Pairing
Traditionally, this is a wine to serve with game, quite strongl-flavoured meats and strong-tasting cheeses.
Colour
A deep red hue, with black tints, reminiscent of black cherry.
Nose
The aromas are exceptional, a sure sign of a high degree of concentration. The oak, with a touch of spiciness, blends with aromas of small red and black berries (strawberry, raspberry, blackcurrant), followed by a hint of liquorice. The taster is overwhelmed by so many sensations.
Palate
What panache in the mouth! The wine is powerful, rich, elegant, opulent, and the fruit aromas give it a certain youthfulness. The tannin imposes the mark of its terroir (it is certainly a grand cru): it fills your mouth, it fills your head. It overcomes you and carries you away.
Ageing
Five to fifteen years, with no problem at all. An exceptional grand cru.
Service
? to 18°C (? to 64°F). Decant it if it's a young vintage.
