2021 Perrot-Minot Mazoyeres-Chambertin Grand Cru VV Cote de Nuits, Burgundy

(Note: Planted in 1965)

The 2021 Mazoyères-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru is matured in used oak and then 30% sees a Wineglobe post-malo. This has more sousbois on the nose, a touch of damp loam filtering through the dark berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, finely balanced with orange rind and marmalade infusing the finish and a healthy sprinkle of black pepper on the aftertaste. Excellent.

The 2021 Chapelle-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru is aged in barrel until malo and then 30% in Wineglobe. The fruit is slightly darker than the Griottes and Charmes, again, well-defined with palpable mineralité. The oak is seamlessly integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, taut and crisp, very tensile with a surfeit of energy enlivening the finish. Not enormously long, but this will have much to offer.
