Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting in Beaune, the 2013 Chambertin Clos de Beze Grand Cru from Bruno Clair has a vivacious bouquet with Morello cherry and raspberry, a slightly chocolaty scent deriving from new oak. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, dark berry fruit that is a little dominated by the wood regime at the moment. It will probably pull through but needs to develop greater substance on the finish to warrant a higher score. Tasted September 2016.
Anticipated maturity: 2018-2035
The 2013 Chambertin Clos de Beze is a bit light in texture and body in this vintage, with attractive, floral aromatics and sculpted fruit but less of the intensity and power that is typical of this site. It will be interesting to see if the 2013 fleshes out a bit, or if perhaps I caught it on an off day.
Anticipated maturity: 2023-2038
