The 2012 Perrot-Minot Chambertin Clos de Bèze has a dense bouquet of crushed blackberry, redcurrant, earth and liquorice which is effortless in its charm and develops continuously with further aeration. On the palate, there is delicious intensity and amplitude to the mineral-tinged fruit and is a masterclass in power without weight. A delicious wine to drink 2020 through to 2035.
94 Vinous
Bright, dark ruby. Profound, utterly primary scents of crushed blackberry and licorice are a bit youthfully unforthcoming. Then wonderfully sweet and dense in the mouth, with far more complexity than the closed nose would suggest: black fruits, cherry, raspberry, licorice, meat, minerals, spices and underbrush, all lifted by an exhilarating note of orange zest. Wonderfully rich wine without any impression of undue weight. The rising, finely tannic finish hints at an almost chocolatey ripeness. Splendid potential.Stephen Tanzer1st January 2014

The 2012 Chambertin Clos de Beze Grand Cru comes from 50-year old vines that belong to Pierre Damoy, located just to the left of the cabotte bearing his name (they have derived from this parcel every year since 2003.) It has a dense bouquet of macerated dark cherries, boysenberry jam and blueberry that is well defined. The palate is medium-bodied with good backbone on the entry. This is very focused, very precise with fine balance, though it just needs a touch of more grip and nuance on the finish that is cut from a similar cloth to the other grand crus.
