Add to Wish List

Chambertin-Clos de Bèze is an Appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC) and Grand Cru vineyard for red wine in the Côte de Nuits subregion of Burgundy, with Pinot noir as the main grape variety. Chambertin-Clos de Bèze is located within the commune of Gevrey-Chambertin, together with a group of nine Grand Cru vineyards all having "Chambertin" as part of their name. It is located uphill from (to the west of) the Route des Grands Crus, borders on Chambertin in the north, Griotte-Chambertin and Chapelle-Chambertin in the east (across the road) and Mazis-Chambertin in the north. The AOC was created in 1937.

Under AOC regulations some wine from Chambertin-Clos de Bèze may be labeled as just Chambertin. Since Chambertin-Clos de Bèze has a good reputation on its own, this is not widely practiced.

(Domaine Perrot-Minot, Pinot Noir / Pinot Nero, Chambertin-Clos de Bèze Grand Cru, Burgundy, France, Red) The aromas range from red plum to black cherry, with lovely notes of rose petal and ginger. The structure is subtle and understated, with a completely limpid tannic web that firmly sustains the wine without anything harsh or aggressive. The wine is approachable even now but should live for 50 years or more - a triumph. ‘Elegant, mineral, ethereal,' in the words of Christophe Perrot-Minot, who often finishes his tastings with the Clos de Bèze because of its aristocratic refinement. (Drink between 2026-2060)

(Chambertin Clos de Bèze, Grand Cru, Perrot-Minot, Red) Noble imperial purple, the finesse is here right from the start, with a sumptuous weight but this Clos de Bèze is never heavy and the tannins are scarcely present. This flows across the palate magically and leaves the most serenely gorgeous aftertaste.
