2017 Latricières-Chambertin, Vieilles Vignes, Jean-Marie Fourrier

TASTING NOTES

"The 2017 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru has an engaging nose with brambly red berry fruit, pressed rose petals, orange essence and light marmalade aromas. The palate is vivacious and full of energy. There is great tension here, citrus-fresh with orange rind and quince notes infusing the red fruit towards the finish, though it does not possess quite the length of the Mazoyères-Chambertin. Still, this has a lot of potential." Neal Martin, Vinous.com

"An airy, cool and elegant nose reflects aromas of red cherry, plum, earth and a whisper of the sauvage. There is terrific intensity to the beautifully delineated mineral-driven flavors that possess a refined mouthfeel before culminating in a saline, highly persistent and linear finish that is borderline strict today. This will clearly benefit from at least a few years of cellaring to better flesh out and ultimately, it should be excellent." Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, Issue 73
