A more forceful style. There is tannic force, but it's not just that - this has drive and is bursting with energy:- a touch ferocious (but in an attractive way!) Very grown-up wild hedgerow fruit. Very long, great potential. Drinking range: 2025 - L&S (Nov 2015)

The 2014 Mazoyères-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru has a well-defined bouquet. Methol and licorice aromas develop in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins. I find this just a bit monotone towards the finish as if the wine runs out of ideas halfway through and tapers away. This is a perplexing Mazoyères.

Full dark red. Strong smoky minerality on the nose, with raspberry and spice notes emerging with air; less subtle than the Charmes today but more satisfying and expressive. Plush, fat and sweet on the palate, with the dark raspberry, spice, licorice and black pepper flavors currently dominated by saline minerality. Seriously dense, rich wine with a rising, palate-staining finish that throws off notes of underbrush, tobacco, iron and spices. The noble tannins owe largely to the high percentage of millerandé berries. A superb showing for this wonderfully silky wine, which will probably be for drinking after the Charmes.

100% whole bunch. Dense crimson. Rather opulent nose. Gouleyant and so gorgeous! Fresh yet sumptuous. Savoury edge. Very fine tannins on the end. Redcurrants. Long and one could drink this earlier if you were in a hurry. Drinking range: 2025 - 2045 Rating: 18 Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Jan 2016)
Domaine Christophe Perrot-Minot
Christophe Perrot-Minot is now the fourth generation of his family producing wine on the estate after his great grandfather Amédée Merme devoted himself to the management and production of wine over 130 years ago. The estate has gone from strength to strength – always keeping the highest standards. Integrated viticulture has been practiced for many years now which has been adapted especially for the terroir. No herbicide or chemical fertilizer is used, instead, Christophe prefers to “stand back and listen to this terroir, only intervening when necessary or when the weather requires it, never systematically.” This is one of the star domaines of the whole of Burgundy.
