Tasting Notes
The 2015 Chapelle Chambertin Grand Cru has a flipping gorgeous bouquet with perfumed black cherries and blueberry fruit intermingling with subtle undergrowth and woodland aromas. It has razor-sharp precision and superb focus. The palate is medium-bodied with very crisp tannin. There is impressive precision in situ, a beguiling sense of energy percolation through the red berry fruit, merging with more black fruit towards the finish. It actually bears similarities to Domaine Dugat's Chapelle Chambertin this year, both exuding terroir expression and joie-de-vivre. This is superb. Dec 2016, www.robertparker.com, Drink: 2020-2038

(from two parcels of vines in Chapelle proper, one planted in ’65 and the other in ’38). A wonderfully elegant and pure nose is composed by the essence of red cherry, spice and tea notes while also being markedly floral in character. The highly energetic medium-bodied flavors possess a wonderfully sophisticated mouth feel as well as very subtle stony nuance that arises on the strikingly persistent finish. This is a Chapelle of harmony and grace that despite its seemingly well-mannered mouth feel, is a wine that should age effortlessly for years, indeed even decades. Dec 2016, www.burghound.com
