Chambertin-Clos de Bèze Grand Cru Pinot Noir

My continued quest to try as many 2022 Burgundies as possible.

15 months in 40% new oak.

When you put this to your nose and then taste, you know you have crossed over to Grand Cru. I would buy this but $300 crosses my price threshold.

The body and mouthfeel are gorgeous. Stunning in fact. Dark, rich, ripe, slightly candied fruits of; blackberries, plum, dark cherries, red cherries, poached strawberries with excellent purple and blueberry hues. There is dark chocolate powder, dark, rich, earth with dry leaves, hue of maple syrup, dry river stone, dry herb buffet, dry tobacco, dry, used leather, barrel shavings, dark spice, light baking spices, some vanillin, black tea, wet, grey volcanic clays, candied, bright, fresh, red, dark florals with violets, near perfect acidity and a gorgeous, elegant, well made in every way long finish that lasts minutes.

If $300 a bottle burgundy is no issue for you, a definite buy.

This one is best in show of the tasting.

Dramatically corked😭

Beau vin qui semble encore assez jeune malgré ses 14 ans. Bouche soyeuse, suave, c’est plutôt charmeur mais les millésimes récents sont mieux réussis. Tout est bien intégré, balancé. La bouche est droite et la longueur est appréciable.

Complexité bourguignonne fabuleuse

Tout ce que l'on attend d'un grand Bourgogne : du fruit, de la finesse et de la profondeur !

Called the vintage and the Vinyard. A classic Cols de Beze. Aging quickly, but definitely the #wotn

Griottes et complexité

Un Chambertin+Musigny !
Magnifique de finesse et de puissance !

Chambertin + Musigny = magnifique tout en finesse !
