Neal Martin, December 2014, Score: 91
The 2013 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru comes from their own contract parcel and purchased fruit, cropped October 6-7, with partial whole cluster and raised for 14 months in 500 liter barrels. It appears to have more harmony than the Charmes-Chambertin at the moment, more floral in personality, to the point where it is more Charmes-Chambertin than the Charmes-Chambertin! The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, supple in the mouth, with good volume. There is plenty of red and black fruit here. although it is missing a little complexity toward the finish. Drink 2019-2034

Burghound, April 2015, Score: 93-95
Here the restrained yet markedly spicy and beautifully layered nose is composed of liqueur-like red and black cherry, earth and lavender aromas. This is sleeker and more refined than the Grands Ech though the medium plus weight flavors possess no better mid-palate concentration or power. There is plenty of the hallmark minerality and I very much like the texture on the balanced, persistent and harmonious finale. A wine of class and grace that should also age for years. Drink 2029+

Stephen Tanzer, November 2014, Score: 92-94
Healthy bright red. Reticent aromas of small wild red berries and truffley underbrush. Rich and fine-grained, with lovely lift to the utterly seamless, deep flavors of berries and earth. Not obviously superior to the Griotte, and not at all a powerhouse, but this tightly wound wine is still youthfully tight and will need years to unfold. Drink 2026-2038

Julia Harding, November 2014, Score: 18.5
Some whole clusters but not at all obvious – will give elegance in age, says Véronique Drouhin. Mid cherry red. Smooth and rather hidden. A touch peppery, the fruit subtle but well pitched. Extreme refinement and excellent length, the tannins so fine and dry. Drink 2020-2030

Chambertin Clos de Bèze
Gevrey-Chambertin has more Grand Crus than any other appellation in Burgundy. Unusually wines from Clos de Beze may simply call themselves Chambertin, which is an indicator of the quality of these vineyards. One of the most complete of all the Grand Crus, rivalling the revered Romanee-Conti, Chambertin-Clos de Bèze wines are the pinnacle of Pinot Noir - fragrant, powerfully complex and intense.
