The 2017 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru offers up a complex bouquet of cassis, plums, sweet spices, grilled squab and savory base notes. On the palate, it's deep, dense and full-bodied, with the most concentration and substance of any wine in the cellar, framed by fine structuring tannins and concluding with a long finish. In contrast to the expansive Echézeaux, the Chapelle-Chambertin is tighter-knit and more focused.

Then surprisingly dense and sweet in the mouth, more generous and creamy than the Vosne-Romanée Les Rouges du Dessus, showing a hint of chocolate. This wine is always the highest in pH in the cellar, noted Tremblay. Finishes with suave, fine-grained tannins, a suggestion of marzipan sweetness and building length. Tremblay noted that owing to the cordon de royat pruning used here, the buds are a bit higher off the ground, and that made a difference during the frost as the temperature at this level may have been as much as a full degree Centigrade higher.In Bond€1,805.00 -

The 2017 Echézeaux du Dessus Grand Cru has a luxurious bouquet of copious red cherry, crushed strawberry, orange zest and tangerine. The palate is medium-bodied with sumptuous red fruit, the richness offset by a fine bead of acidity. A little exotic but not ostentatious, revealing a tang of white pepper toward the persistent finish. Superb.In Bond€1,785.00 -

The 2021 Echézeaux du Dessus Grand Cru, which contains 10% whole bunches, offers impressive presence on the nose, incense permeating the red berry fruit, wonderful delineation and focus. The palate is medium-bodied with a lightly spiced, blood orange infused entry, touches of white pepper and even ginger towards the persistent finish. This will need a little time to cohere but there is clearly immense potential.In Bond€1,245.00 -

Decanter (97)
This seductive wine appeals along the same lines as the Beaumonts, yet there is more of everything – more lush, dark blackberry and plum fruit, more liquorice spice on the attack, and more density and tannic grip on the palate. The texture is velvety and dense, yet there is also great finesse and a concentrated, focused finish. The grapes come from two biodynamically farmed parcels in Echézeaux du Dessus. This wine should open relatively young and drink well for two decades or more. This is a magnificent wine in a great vintage.In Bond€5,150.00 -
