The 2019 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru has a well-defined, very delineated bouquet of red and black fruit laced with graphite and light tobacco aromas, quite austere at first but opening up with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy red berry fruit. The acidity here is well judged, and there is the same kind of salinity as the Latricières toward the tannic finish. This will require 5–6 years in bottle to shave its edges, but it will be worth it.

Aromas of cassis, plums, orange oil, smoked meats, loamy soil and black truffle preface Faiveley's 2019 Chambertin-Clos de Bèze Grand Cru, a full-bodied, velvety and sumptuous wine that's elegantly textural and fleshy, with its broad-shouldered chassis of tannin cloaked in an ample core of succulent fruit. Long and complete, it's a terrific Clos de Bèze in the making.
