A WONDERFUL RANGE OF FINEST RED BURGUNDY, INCLUDING MANY WINES FROM THE GREAT 1990, 1996 AND 1999 VINTAGES
Chambertin Grand Cru, Clos de Bèze--Vintage 1990
Côte de Nuits. Domaine-bottled: Armand Rousseau
Tasting note: Both the Chambertin-Clos de Beze and Chambertin are more closed, deeper-colored wines than the outstanding Gevery-Chambertin-Clos St.-Jacques. It is often difficult to pick a favorite, but I thought the Chambertin-Clos de Beze to be lower in acidity and more forward. I would suggest cellaring it for 3-4 years, and I am sure it has at least 15 or more years of aging potential. The nose offers up roasted black-cherry and toasty new oak scents. In the mouth, there is outstanding concentration, full body, and a long, rich, moderately tannic finish.
