Domaine Perrot-Minot
Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir
Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France
The 2nd wine in the Gevrey Chambertin 2016 Grand Cru lineup tasted blind. My original notes said some whole bunch in evidence , which later was partly right when the identity was revealed. Perrot Minot use whole berry maceration but the grapes are de stemmed. Red fruits predominate on the rich and powerful palate. Quite savoury (I thought coming from the stems) with medium tannins. I have little experience with this producer but Roscoe from Prince is a huge fan. Saying the structure and power comes from tiny yields, old vines and thick skins.

Jan 25th, 2020The 9th of 9 in the Gevrey Chambertin bracket and my equal Top pointed Wine with the Mazoyeres. Glorious and gorgeous red fruited aromas with sap and earthy energy. Lovely supple Tannins. Could happily drink this now but will live for decades.

Bright cherry color, strawberry and raspberry nose. Still lots of life opened to peacock mouth feel with smooth landing.

Frustratingly layered and complex. Obviously still needs cellar time but already showing incredibly well
