Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Jan 22
The 2017 Chambertin Grand Cru has a very light bouquet at first, and I wondered whether there was some TCA. But it responds to aeration, evolving more and more fruit. The palate is very well balanced and lightly spiced, with fine grip and structure. The lovely crescendo to a fresh, slightly austere finish suggests that this needs several years in bottle. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting.
