Founded in 2007, micro-négociant Olivier Bernstein has rapidly established himself as one of the newer stars of Burgundy with a sensational range of old-vine reds from seven Grands and three Premiers Crus of the Côte de Nuits.
From the excellent 2016 vintage, this is an incredibly concentrated, rich and complex release of the highly prized Chambertin Grand Cru. Writing for Vinous Media, Stephen Tanzer described it as having a “brooding, dark character on the nose, with aromas of blackberry and liquorice complicated by a subtle animal quality” and awarded it 95-98 points.
Vinous
Full dark red; more saturated than the Clos de Bèze. Shows a brooding, dark character on the nose, with aromas of blackberry and licorice complicated by a subtle animal quality. Incredibly concentrated but youthfully imploded, with its sappy dark berry, spice and earth flavors intensified by underlying saline minerality. Despite the impression of pent-up power, there's nothing hard about this beauty. The extraordinary slow-mounting finish goes on and on with uncanny subtle persistence, leaving the taste buds quivering. Stephen Tanzer1st January 2018
