"A more elegant and more floral-suffused nose reflects notes of both earth and dark berries with a hint of the sauvage lurking in the background. There is similarly good volume and mid-palate density to the delicious, round and relatively supple medium weight flavors that contrast markedly with the very firm, powerful and ever-so-slightly rustic finale. This is really very good and the rusticity may well age out."

The nose shows a mass of fresh red fruit, concentrated and intense, with just the right ripeness. The palate is medium to full-bodied, ample and succulent, with a fleshy core of fruit and melting tannins
Domaine Bart
Clos De Bèze
An exuberantly spicy nose combines notes of plum, dark currant, violets and underbrush. There is terrific intensity and a lovely minerality to the ripe and well-delineated medium weight
Domaine Bertheau
Chambolle 1er Cru
More complex yet more reserved on the nose with the hallmark sexy, spicy and pure black fruit aromas that are followed by deeply pitched
Domaine Etienne Sauzet
Puligny Combettes
Domaine Livera Philippe
Chapelle Chambertin
This is quite deeply colored in the context of what is typical for the 2016 vintage. Ripe and deeply pitched aromas speak of plum liqueur, various dark berries and plenty of earth, sauvage and forest floor elements
