FEATURES
🏰 The 2016 Bart Chambertin Clos de Beze Grand Cru, a 【Grand Cru of Gevrey-Chambertin and one of the most prestigious wines of the Côte de Nuits】, captivates with its silky structure and chalky minerality. The 2016 vintage was marked by balanced ripeness, where freshness and concentration harmoniously respond to each other. It displays a deep red robe with garnet reflections. The nose is complex and seductive, offering aromas of rose petal, candied orange peel, black cherry, blackcurrant, a saline touch, and dark chocolate. On the palate, it delivers an ample attack, carried by a lively acidity and an elegant tannic structure, with chalky minerality extending to a long and precise finish. Expect notes of red cherry, wild currant, earth, soft game, and underbrush, with a polished and sophisticated intensity.
🍴 This powerful and elegant Pinot Noir is an ideal companion for equally complex and high-toned dishes. Pair it with roasted duck or feathered game, roast lamb in gravy, chicken in red wine sauce, or rib steak. It also provides strong support for soft-centred cheeses.
🥂 Perfect for a significant celebration, a connoisseur's tasting event, or as a prized addition to a cellar, with an aging potential of 10 to 20 years.
