    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note
    Christophe Perrot-Minot, Chambertin, Grand Cru, 2017

    Forceful, brooding and more muscular than the Chambertin Clos de Bèze. Plenty of depth of flavour and flesh to support the structure. Complex, deep-lying flavours of hedgerow berry, blackthorn, cherry and undergrowth. An imposing wine that reveals itself bit by bit. A true vin de garde.

    The 2017 Chambertin Grand Cru has the most backward and surly nose of Christophe Perrot-Minot’s Grand Crus, but it just needs a few swirls to reveal enticing raspberry, cranberry, brown spice and slightly ferrous aromas. The mineralité starts to reveal itself with aeration. The medium-bodied palate offers supple tannin, gorgeous pure raspberry preserve notes mixed with blood orange, sea salt and light quince, and marmalade notes toward the succinct finish. Predictably as it might read, this is the best 2017 from Perrot-Minot.
