2020 Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru, Domaine Duroché

2020 Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru, Domaine Duroché

This is fast becoming one of Burgundy’s most sought-after wines. The vineyard was planted in 1920, and you can feel the power of the old vines in the glass. It is intense and opulent, with plenty of spice on the nose. The palate is impeccably balanced, with vibrant acidity alongside an impressive mouthfeel. This is powerful, yet retains poise and elegance. It deserves plenty of time in the bottle.

Tasting notes

The 2020 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru, one of my favourite cuvées from the domaine, has a wonderful bouquet with rose petals infusing the shimmering red fruit, a subtle marine influence developing with aeration. The palate is well balanced with supple tannins, so finely chiselled with a harmonious, silky smooth finish that lingers in the mouth. Fans out wonderful - what a superb Clos-de-Bèze.
