2019 Latricieres-Chambertin Grand Cru, Domaine Faiveley

2019 Latricieres-Chambertin Grand Cru, Domaine Faiveley

Latricières always feels a little cooler than Charmes next door. A gently but cool breeze draws down the valley, keeping freshness and minerality in the grapes. It is so pure and elegant in 2019, with an ethereal rose petal perfume. A beautifully balanced weight on the palate, and fine freshness right to the end make for a sophisticated expression of the vintage.

Tasting notes

The 2019 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru has more cohesion and intensity than the Charmes-Chambertin, presenting lovely brambly red berry fruit mingled with potpourri and light loamy aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-boned tannins, taut and crisp, displaying good depth and an animated chalky, briny finish. Classic in style, this is a superb Latricières from Faiveley, though it will need cellaring.
