Fascinating

potpourri and smoky minerals

rich and powerful flavors that preserve a fine sense of balance and exceptional depth though at present the superbly persistent finale is linear to the point of strictness

This is most impressive as it manages to deliver stunning intensity and depth of material without any undue heaviness

Inky blue and purplish fruit

Pascal Marchand, Chambertin Clos De Beze Vintage:2011 FascinatingAn overtly spicy and very fresh nose is composed of pure red currant, plum and earth scents. The broad shouldered and well concentrated flavors are impressively rich but also dont lack for vibrancy on the mineral inflected, detailed and moderately austere finish. There is very good if not genuinely knock out length though yet again do note that this will require an extended cellar snooze before it will be ready for prime time. (91 94) 2027+
