FEATURES
🏰 The 1995 Pierre Gelin Chambertin Clos de Beze Grand Cru is an 【iconic Grand Cru from Gevrey-Chambertin, delivering a majestic expression of Pinot Noir】 that embodies the singular vibrancy of Burgundy's greatest terroirs. This classic cellar wine, despite its age, shows a bright ruby color with deep highlights, indicating concentrated fruit and an attractive youthful vibrancy. Its complex bouquet reveals dark fruits like blackcurrant and blackberry, lifted by fine spices, pepper, blond tobacco, vanilla, liquorice, and an elegant woodland note. The palate offers a broad, structured attack with top-quality, silky tannins and perfectly integrated acidity, leading to a long finish with a mineral touch. Expect a subdued nose evoking griotte cherries and gingerbread, with a full-bodied, generous, and forthright palate, and hints of leather and tobacco layered with spices.
🍴 This noble Pinot Noir is superbly versatile for gourmet meals. It pairs beautifully with delicate charcuterie, beef carpaccio, game terrines, and spiced pâté en croûte. For main courses, consider roast rib of beef, saddle of lamb, venison, or lacquered duck. It's also excellent with aged cheeses like Époisses, Cîteaux, and Comté, and can even complement lightly sweet dark-fruit desserts or spiced poached pear.
🥂 A memorable tasting experience awaits with this classic cellar wine. Serve at 16–18°C (60-64°F). Given its 1995 vintage, expect some delightful tertiary notes to have developed. Gently open the bottle and consider decanting to allow it to breathe and separate from any potential sediment. Always check the cork condition carefully before serving.
