    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note
    Domaine Perrot Minot, Chapelle Chambertin, Vieilles Vignes, Grand Cru, 2017

    Spicy dark fruit, full and muscular but with some gloss and silk to the tannins. The polar opposite of Perrot Minot’s Charmes-Chambertin - richer and more broad-shouldered. Solid, and sturdy deep dark berry flavours with earthier notes of forest floor. A powerhouse. From a fine parcel of 90 year-old vines that produces tiny “millerande” berries year in year out.

    The 2017 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru is much more reserved on the nose compared to the Charmes-Chambertin, the fruit a little darker. There is something of a crushed-pebble, almost beach-like scent, a distant tang of cockle sheds that surfaces with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannin and a little more depth and grip than the Charmes-Chambertin, even if it does not quite display the same sensuality and flesh on the finish. Good potential.
