2014 Chambertin Clos de Beze

The 2014 Chambertin Clos-de-Beze Grand Cru has a pastille-like purity on the nose, very sensual for a Clos-de-Beze with hints of marmalade and quince jus in the background. The palate is medium-bodied, a little disjointed on the entry perhaps, but there is good weight here and attractive notes of desiccated orange peel interlacing the red berry fruit on the finish. Let's see how this ages in bottle, because I am looking for a little more sustain on the aftertaste. Apr 2016, www.robertparker.com
