Domaine Pierre Gelin Chambertin-Clos de Bèze Grand Cru – Bourgogne – Red – 2016:

 

The Pinnacle of Grand Cru Burgundy

The Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru from Domaine Pierre Gelin is a monumental wine, representing the absolute peak of Pinot Noir in the Côte de Nuits. Sourced from one of the most historically revered vineyards-said to be the first in Burgundy-this wine is a statement of power, elegance, and profound depth.

Tasting Notes (Typical Vintage)

• Color: Deep, vibrant ruby, maturing into a rich garnet.
• Nose: Highly complex and expressive, featuring concentrated aromas of ripe red and black fruits (black cherry, blackcurrant), subtle spice, tobacco leaf, rose petals, and a striking, earthy minerality.
• Palate: Full-bodied, intense, and impeccably balanced. The texture is velvety and luscious, supported by firm yet beautifully integrated tannins, culminating in an extremely long, vertical, and focused finish.

Pairing & Serving

Serve this Grand Cru at 60-62°F (15-16°C). Decanting is recommended for younger vintages.

• Food Pairing: Classic partners include Roasted Venison, Grilled Duck Breast with Cherry Reduction, Beef Wellington, and dishes featuring Black Truffles or wild mushrooms.
• Cellar Potential: 15 to 25+ years.

A rare and investment-worthy bottle that delivers a world-class tasting experience.
