So elegant, rich and balanced, walking the line between generous and structured, it is pleasing from the first sniff of rose petals, violets and baked cherries to the full body and expansive fruit flavors that expand on the palate and linger in the finish. It’s a beauty, tempting to drink now but best from 2029.

Though broad and firmly structured, this red features focused aromas and flavors of cherry, currant, sandalwood, tobacco and stone. Quickly tightens up, with the dense, refined tannins applying grip and supporting the lengthy aftertaste. Beautifully balanced, this just needs time to knit together. Best from 2030 through 2050.

A fine crimson colour. The bouquet is immediately appealing showing a distinction not yet apparent in the Chapelle-Chambertin, though that will come. This is the more structured of the two, possibly even a little bit stern, but with a wealth of high-class fruit behind where the refinement begins to show. Drink from 2032-2040+.

The 2022 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru is an exquisitely defined bouquet with layers of pure red fruit, crushed rock, and a light sea spray influence, very focused and conveying a sense of energy. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins. There’s impressive backbone, exerting grip and presence. Yet it is also very elegant and poised. Quite spicy towards the finish, this Clos-de-Bèze lingers in the mouth 40 seconds after it has exited. Superb.
