2015 Latricieres Chambertin

Tasting Notes
The Latriciere-Chambertin is a step up in quality from the Charmes-Chambertin as it’s more focused, detailed and refined. The nose offer very refined layers of red fruit supported by a intense and filigree minerality. On the palate cool and very vibrant fruit – refined, airy with tremendous energy. A very refined wine .. Latriciere does perform well in hotter years .. this is a gorgeous wine. Jun 2016, www.winehog.org

(from a very large 1.21 ha parcel). A ripe yet airy and cool nose offers up aromas of essence of red and dark raspberry with plenty of floral influence along with subtle spice, earth and herbal tea nuances. There is terrific concentration to the rich and remarkably concentrated medium weight plus flavors that brim with both minerality and sappy dry extract, all wrapped in a saline, balanced and highly persistent finish that just doesn’t stop. I often have a very small preference for the Mazis chez Faiveley but in 2015 the Latricières may very well better it. Dec 2016, www.burghound.com
