Perrot-Minot Christophe

2005 Perrot-Minot Christophe Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze

By on March 31, 2008 #asides

Medium-plus colour. The nose has width and a lovely creamy depth that’s edged with faint toffee. It’s not the deepest coloured, but this is very concentrated and coupled to lovely acidity. Super, balanced presentation. Understated but very, very impressive, it will need years in the cellar to provide complexity.

Despite being tight at the core there is some width and hints of cream on the nose. Much more concentration and structure, but the tannin is almost as fine as the Rousseau – though to a fresher effect. I have a slight preference for this.

Nice high-toned fruit over a dense core. Sweet, light on its feet and concentrated with a good extra dimension – but not cheap.

Concentrated aromatics with dark and dense fruit – really impresses. Really concentrated yet balanced with super acidity. A wine that continues to impress despite its price.

2005 Perrot-Minot Christophe Chambolle-Musigny La Combe d'Orveaux

A dark and brooding, indeed menacing nose with a high-toned mineral edge – wow! A deep and concentrated but very fine package – this is an absolute beauty. Whatever it costs, it’s probably worth it – a top 10 wine for me this year.

Also a menacing nose – but clearly not showing all its potential depth. Concentrated and fully-packed in the mouth. Another clearly impressive, indeed stunning wine – it just didn’t speak to me like the Chambolle did…
