Chambertin Clos de Bèze 1991 from Armand Rousseau is a Pinot Noir from the oldest Grand Cru site in Gevrey-Chambertin. Often overshadowed by 1990, the 1991 vintage is a connoisseur’s year, offering higher acidity and a more focused aromatic profile that has aged magnificently. This wine has moved past its youthful iron-like grip into a phase of ethereal complexity, featuring dried rose petals, sandalwood and a distinct gamey undertone.

One of the real highlights in this tasting, the 1991 Chambertin-Clos de Bèze opens with the most striking, exquisite aromatics imaginable. All of those nuances follow through to the palate, where the wine is silky, deeply expressive and captivating. Now mature, the 1991 has enough pedigree to drink well for the next two decades, perhaps longer. Mint, dried flowers, sage, cherry and hard candies are some of the many notes that are laced into the haunting, deeply evocative finish. This is just about as good as it gets. In this context, the Bèze is a bit more forward than the Chambertin, although that is really splitting hairs.Antonio Galloni1st June 2016
