"An exuberantly spicy nose also features ripe red berry liqueur and earth nuances that are also reflected by the detailed, complex and mineral-suffused big-bodied flavors that possess fine power and real muscle on the focused, balanced, explosive and exceptionally persistent finish. This is really a lovely but extremely firm effort with impeccably well-integrated tannins. Considerable patience required. 95 Points/Drink 2029+" - Allen Meadows, Burghound
"The 2009 Chambertin-Clos de Bèze is richer, rounder and deeper than the Chambertin. It shows marvelous depth and seductiveness in its black fruit, licorice, spices and asphalt. This is an authoritative, intense Burgundy that will require considerable patience. 93-95 Points/Drink 2029-2049." - Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media
