Tasting notes
The 2013 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru is superb, wafting from the glass with scents of sweet berries, bergamot, spices and forest floor. Medium to full-bodied, pure and fine-boned, with superb depth at the core, bright acids and a precise finish, it stands out from its predecessors vintages for its purity of fruit and quality of tannin.

The 2013 Latrières-Chambertin Grand Cru was showing just a touch of reduction on the nose. It reluctantly opens up with blackberries, briary and undergrowth scents, but it remains a little sullen. The palate is medium-bodied with supple ripe tannin, very fine acidity, lively cranberry and strawberry fruit-laced with dried fig toward the long and sustained finish. Excellent.
Light to mid crimson. Lifted, aromatic cherry fruit. Really fragrant. Scented on the palate. Dry, super-fine tannins, juicy, charming and long. No need to wait too long for this but should still age well.
