CHAPELLE CHAMBERTIN

(from Chapelle proper). Like several wines in the range, there is a touch of herbal tea to the abundantly spiced nose of various dark berries where floral and spicy top notes appear. Once again there is excellent volume and punch to the dense, sappy and delicious larger-scaled flavors that deliver very fine length on the seductively textured and sneaky long finish. This is also quite good and a wine that should amply reward 12 to 15 years of cellar time but could also be approached after 7 to 8 years.

The 2019 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru is more expressive, unwinding in the glass with aromas of cassis, orange rind, potpourri and sweet soil tones. Medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, with its elegantly chalky structuring tannins largely concealed in an enveloping core of fruit, it's long and perfumed.

Rich deep purple, with a slightly meaty tone to the nose at first. Luxury purple style fruit, a density, a weight and still a freshness behind. Very interesting classy fruit, good density, persistent, not too shallow, certainly ripe dark raspberry fruit. Tasted: November 2020 4/5 stars Rating: 93-97 Jasper Morris - Inside Burgundy  (Jan 2021)
