Justerini & Brooks Tasting note
Christophe Perrot-Minot, Chambertin Clos de Bèze, Grand Cru, Vieilles Vignes, 2021

Even a shade more expressive than the Chambertin at this stage, it’s so inviting, a little less explosive but so finely textured. Polished, seductive layers of fruit backlit by a really fine internal energy. A gracious, poised and refined sibling to the handsome power of Chambertin. Glorious.

Neal Martin, Vinous
The 2021 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru is aged in used oak and then 30% in Wineglobes. This has what you might call more Pinoté on the nose than the Chambertin: beautifully defined red fruit, touches of white tipped strawberry and white tea, the whole bunches (20%) seamlessly integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with finely-chiselled tannins, fresh and vibrant, quite saline, maybe just losing a little depth and body in its final furlongs due to the growing season exerting into limitations. Yet it remains a finely crafted Clos-de-Bèze.
