Domaine Tortochot Chambertin Grand Cru 2016
Burgundy wine Chambertin Grand Cru
A completely different and very seductive red and blue berry fruit nose combines with obvious earth, minerality and violet aromas that give way to textured and admirably concentrated medium full-bodied flavors that really coat and stain the palate with sap. There is a very ripe tannic spine with a mildly rustic mouth feel

"A completely different and very seductive red and blue berry fruit nose combines with obvious earth, minerality and violet aromas that give way to textured and admirably concentrated medium full-bodied flavors that really coat and stain the palate with sap. There is a very ripe tannic spine with a mildly rustic mouth feel and plenty of muscle and punch. This is very impressive but be prepared to be patient." (Janvier 2008)
