Pierre owns the last parcel of Latricières before Chambertin begins, and while attention is usually focused on his Clos de Bèze, this is quickly becoming as in demand. It is suave, dark, and cool: somehow opulent and restrained at the same time.
This wine has now sold out. Please get in touch with your advisor or one of our team on [email protected] or 01473 313 300 for more information or guidance on an alternative.
Named in honour of Pierre’s late mother. A rich purple. Darker fruit than most, clearly ripe. Fresher red fruit notes then come up behind. There is a more tannic background here, slightly drier fruit in some ways, then a solid finish, with structure. Drink from 2032-2040. Tasted: November 2023.
The 2022 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru will be labelled Cuvée Mariette this vintage in remembrance of Duroché's mother, who passed this year and purchased the original parcel. It has a typical nose from this vineyard with dark berry fruit and light sandstone aromas, earthy yet detailed. The medium-bodied palate offers bright red cherries, mulberry and blueberry on the entry. Quite a sweet core on this Latricières, with a dash of pepper emanating from the 15% whole bunches on the finish. Excellent.
