The Chambertin Clos de Bèze Les Ouvrées Rodin 2013 is a magnificent wine – although sligtly closed currently. The nose offer complex layers of fruit – red and blue berries – oak well integrated – and with a intense yet refined mineral note. On the palate layers of intense fruit – very elegant and detailed offering great length and depth. Not a power Clos de Bèze but a very refined and harmonious wine … this is truly impressive. Chapeau – a delightful Clos de Bèze in the making.

- Vineyard Insight: Latricières-Chambertin The Gevrey-Chambertin appellation is large with quite a lot of rather large Grand Crus generously allocated when the current classification was established. Not all plots of the Gevrey Grand Crus are of high standard, and yet still they are famous in the Burgundy world where names like Charmes Chambertin and Mazis Chambertin have a great ...

This area is somewhat overlooked, but as the new generations of vignerons take on these terroirs, there are very fine wines to find from these vineyards. I have already covered the vineyards: Aux Réas Clos des Réas Aux Bas ...
- Terroir Insight: Faiveley Clos de Bèze Les Ouvrées Rodin The two greatest vineyards of the Gevrey-Chambertin appellations is without doubt Le Chambertin and Chambertin Clos de Bèze … although I adore Ruchottes Chambertin for hedonistic reasons purely.
