Tasting notes
The 2015 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru is stunning stuff and has both incredible aromatics as well as a seamless, heavenly style on the palate. Sweet red fruits, spring flowers, spice, and just a hint of forest floor all emerge from the glass, and it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, flawless balance, ultra-fine tannins, and a beautiful finish. This magical Chambertin has the ripeness of the 2015 vintage as well as terrific overall freshness and purity. You can safely drink this beauty today or cellar bottles for another 10-15 years or more.

The 2015 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru has a very attractive bouquet of red berry fruit, brown spices, cold stone, and a touch of sous-bois , all well defined and endowed with a surfeit of charm. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannin, conveying the more masculine nature of this grand cru vineyard, yet with precision and detail flowing through the finish. Excellent, but it needs several years in bottle. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.
Cask sample. Biodynamic. Mid crimson. Sweet red fruit and oak spice. Dry and firm on the palate but deliciously fresh and refined. Not a powerhouse but shapely in a lean sort of way and persistent. (JH)
