The 2018 Chambertin Clos De Bèze has an intense purple color with copious aromas of dark cherry, raspberry, cedar and undergrowth that gain intensity in the glass. On the palate the attack is balanced and rich yet despite the ripeness of fruit, it has managed to retain admirable finesse. Its spicy and precise tannins offer roundness, lightness, and structure on the finish, suggesting that it will be a seriously long-lived wine.
“The Chambertin Clos De Bèze has an intense purple color with a fragrance of small red fruits and licorice on the nose providing strong aromatic majestic quality. On the palate the attack is balanced, clear, sound and rich. Its melted, spicy and precise tannins offer roundness and lightness on the finish. With a hint of rose, this elegant wine suggests its sensuality. A wine to be laid down.” – Producer Notes
”The 2018 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru includes 30% whole-bunch fruit, though this is the one grand cru where you cannot detect the stem addition, just the copious dark cherry, raspberry, cedar and undergrowth aromas that gain intensity in the glass. The palate is supple on the entry, the acidity neatly counterbalancing the intensity of the fruit. This Clos-de-Bèze has real grip and an arching structure on the finish, suggesting that it will be a seriously long-lived wine. Excellent.”- Vinous Media
About: Five generations have been running the Domaine for 163 years, Caroline and Nicolas, Christine and Philippe’s children represent the sixth. In 1850, Jean-Baptiste Laroze started a vineyard operation in Gevrey Chambertin. He was later succeeded by Felix Laroze.
In 1919, Suzanne, the daughter of Félix, married Alexandre Drouhin, who owned vines in Chambolle Musigny and the estate was henceforth called Drouhin-Laroze. The Estate is currently run by Philippe and Christine Drouhin, assisted by their children Caroline and Nicolas.
Each successive generation continued to develop the Estate with the sole objective of investing in hillside vineyards, which was a visionary and risky choice. At the time, those vineyards were already very expensive and not very productive. The bet paid off and today, thanks to the sacrifices and risk-taking of the previous generations, the 11.50 hectare Estate is one of the most prestigious in terms of diversity, quality and the surface area of its appellations.
