Note di degustazione
(these vines are 90 years old, according to Perrot-Minot): Bright red with ruby tones. Very deep aromas of ripe plum, smoky minerality and brown spices; this is more earth-bound while the Griottes is airy and high-pitched. Large-scaled, opulent and full but without any heaviness; in fact this is remarkably light on its feet for a typically warm grand cru site in a hot vintage. Finishes with big, fine-grained, horizontal tnnins that saturate the tongue and lovely lingering spicy perfume.

The 2015 Chapelle-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru was more expressive and vibrant on the nose compared to the Griotte Chambertin at this early stage with vivacious blackberry, bergamot, mulberry and violets aromas that come bounding from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple and very fine tannin, a keen line of acidity and a sense of composure and harmony that I found wanting in the Griotte. It gently caresses the senses and leaves a residue of spice on the tongue after it has departed. This is a superb offering from Christophe Perrot-Minot.
Cask sample. Bought from his mate Pierre Damoy and he decides when to pick. Quite low key on the nose. Full and round and almost blowsy. Very heady. A bit brutal. Spicy and wild – a bit too much for me. (JR)
