RATINGS

96Robert M. Parker Jr.

..displays a lead pencil, Mouton-like element in the bouquet, gobs of rich, sweet, black-raspberry fruit, plenty of smoky, toasty new oak, and remarkable concentration and length...Super-rich.

This is supreme in its expression of that which is Chambertin, offering power without weight yet an intensity and pungency of flavors that must be experienced to be believed. Only a handful of Burgundies ever show this level of quality...

91Wine Spectator

A fairly big, chewy wine for the vintage, shading its ripe currant and plum fruit with a definite component of sweet, spicy oak.

17Jancis Robinson

Sweet and round and so gentle and easy…. A little bit tough on the finish but pretty vibrant and impressive, with real get up and go. Quite meaty and dry on the finish.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin, Le Chambertin

Chambertin is a 32.5 acre Grand Cru vineyard in the Gevrey-Chambertin appellation. More than 25 proprietors own parcels, and some parcels are as small as about 50 square yards. The famous vineyard gets its name from a 7th century peasant, Monsieur Bertin. The name is assumed to come from the phrase “champ Bertin,” or Bertin’s field. Chambertin has an altitude that varies from 275 to 300 meters and is tucked under the Montagne de la Combe-Grisard, sheltering the site from strong winds. The soil is limestone, though there is also clay and gravel. Principal proprietors by acreage owned are Armand Rousseau, 5.38 acres; Jean and Jean-Louis Trapet, 4.75 acres; and Rossignol-Trapet, 4 acres.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, Grand Cru

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
