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.
As is perfectly permissible by appellation law, Bernstein’s Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru is a blend of fruit sourced from Charmes and Mazoyères. The 2016 is dense, concentrated and remarkably deep, yet simultaneously delicate and refined. This will need a little longer in the cellar than most.
Vinous
Bright, dark red. Wild yet precise nose combines aromas of musky small red berries, dried flowers and game. Dense, sappy and thick but gentle too, offering outstanding intensity to its fine-grained flavors of purple fruits, flowers and animal fur. There's a juicy delicacy here in the style of the vintage's best examples. Spreads out to dust the palate on the very pure, rising finish, leaving behind a distinctly dark impression of blackberry and boysenberry.Stephen Tanzer1st January 2018
