Description

Review by: David Schildknecht

Wine Advocate: Issue 171, June 2007



The Drouhin 2005 Chambertin Clos de Beze – which combines purchased fruit with a bit from their domaine – displays a classic nose of black cherry, licorice, white pepper, and rose petal; stains the palate with its intensity of fruit, herb and flower while displaying fantastic elegance, polish and silken refinement of texture; and grips for dear life in a finish marked by stunningly vivid floral perfume. This superb Pinot should not be revisited for at least 5-7 years and will doubtless be worth holding for twice that amount of time.



From Frédéric Drouhin: I have checked the story about Chambertin 2005. It is indeed Chambertin Clos de Beze but the labeling was Chambertin. We have some given customers who would like this particular wine. Not many bottles were produced. So it is normal you came across this wine but again the quantities are very limited.
