Domaine Bouchard Pere & Fils - Chambertin Grand Cru 'Clos de Beze' - 2018

This too is notably ripe though the spicier and more floral-inflected dark berry fruit aromas are not jammy. While there isn't quite the same concentration there is markedly better vibrancy to the broad-shouldered flavors that possess a highly succulent mid-palate, all wrapped in a discreetly stony and sneaky long finish. The compact and built-to-age finish makes clear that plenty of patience will be beneficial. 92-94 Points Allen Meadows, Burghound
