Christophe Perrot-Minot’s 2016 Chambertin Grand Cru is a poised and tensile wine built for long-term cellar-aging. Coy on the nose initially, it opens up to reveal delicate floral perfume and undercurrents of cranberry fruit interlaced with stony mineralité. The palate is fine-grained, graceful and has tantalising length.
Vinous
Saturated dark red. Wonderfully vibrant aromas of medicinal black cherry, menthol, bitter chocolate and crushed rock. More imploded and less fleshy in the early going than the overwhelming majority of Perrot-Minots 2015s and a brilliant example of its vintage, offering explosive yet tight-grained flavors of black fruits and salty minerals that fill the mouth without leaving any impression of weight. Finishes with firm but noble tannins, outstanding building length and compelling tension and floral perfume; really saturates the mouth and vibrates. This is less plush and thick than the 2016 Clos de Bèze today but may be even longer.Stephen Tanzer1st January 2018
