Tasting Notes

Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Nov 18
The 2015 Chambertin Grand Cru has a very traditional, well-defined and somehow noble bouquet evidencing some stem addition that is complementary to the fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin. This does not have the spellbinding precision of Rousseau's Chambertin tasted alongside, but depth, grit, spiciness and impressive structure render the finish utterly compelling. Cellar this for at least another decade; it will surely be worth the wait. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.
