Wine Information
Tastings:
"Perrot-Minot's 2005 Chambertin Clos de Beze Vieilles Vignes (from 50-year-old vines) leads with a jaw-dropping nose of cassis, licorice, citrus zest, black raspberry liqueur, wood smoke, and candied violets. In the mouth, this presents a smelted alliance of liqueur-like black fruit essence, saline minerality, and deep, roasted meatiness. A subtly oily, creamily-textured feel covers a wealth of refined tannins. For all of its sheer finishing, distilled-fruit intensity and grip, this never neglects the first duty of wine - to refresh - and displays gravity-defying lift as it heads down the runway and takes off for a spectacularly long, high-flying finish of utmost clarity and replete with nuances. Plan on following this wine - should you be so lucky as to latch onto a bottle - for at least 15-20 years." – David Schildknecht / Wine Advocate 100 p.
"A supremely elegant and pure nose of red pinot fruit with a potent mix of undertones including smoke, game, iron-infused earth and underbrush leads to sweet, round, suave yet detailed big-bodied flavors that pack real punch as the focus and intensity are remarkable. This isn't quite as big and powerful as the Cham but it's finer and even a touch longer. A qualitative choice though the underlying character of the wines is clearly different." – Allen Meadows / Burghound 94 p (1st Quarter, 2008)
"Loaded with sweet fruit and stony aromas and flavors, this red delivers an intense core of cherry, raspberry and spice with well-integrated tannins. It's balanced and racy, with a long, concentrated aftertaste of berries and mineral. 345 cases made." Bruce Sanderson / Wine Spectator 95 p
