2016 Domaine Drouhin Laroze, Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru 1x750ml

Robert Parker 94-96

"The 2016 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru includes around 30% whole bunch fruit. It has a very complex bouquet, a mixture of red and black fruit, a whiff of sea cave, wet limestone and something from underground (mulch or peat?). The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannin, pure black cherry and blueberry fruit with a taut, quite linear but tensile finish. This is outstanding, a very sophisticated Chapelle-Chambertin in the making with breeding and intellect, all without shortchanging you on fruit." [Neal Martin, 29/12/2017]

Anticipated maturity: 2021-2045
