Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru Pinot Noir 1995

Scott@Mister A’s-San Diego
9.5

1995 vintage. Not decanted. Appropriate color. Good fill and cork. Beautiful, integrated nose. Flavors same. Medium-medium heavy body. Dark fruit, earth and spice coalescing into a unified experience now. This is at the top of the bell curve for the next half-decade and probably longer. Still, undeniable power under the hood and completely bewitching. 05.28.25. — 4 days ago

@Scott@Mister A’s-San Diego These Grand Cru Rousseau’s are incredibly long living aren’t they. Certainly power under the hood as you say.

@Scott@Mister A’s-San Diego Could I ask why no decanting? Sediment was minimal?

@Bob McDonald I have run across quite a few Burgundy drinkers that are adamant about not having their Burgs decanted. I get it if it’s a bleepy vintage (this wasn’t). A lot of people are convinced that these “force of nature” wines such as this, DRC stuff and 1st growth BDX will have the magic evaporate suddenly and be left with nothing. Perhaps if you’re opening wines older than 1961 BDX, but imho, wines like this need a bit of soft yoga stretching in a decanter after being straight-jacketed for 3-6 decades-esp Bordeaux. People are PNP’ing their great wines and drinking them over the course of an hour or so without a decant The vast majority of these upper level wines will taste better with another 30 mins-3 hours of airtime.
