Chambertin Clos de Beze 2019 Domaine Bart

Professionele reviews

Burghound (93)

This is at once a bit fresher and certainly spicier with its pretty, even airy, aromas of red currant, Asian-style tea, rose petal and a whiff of lavender. There is terrific verve to the even better delineated if not quite as seductively textured flavors that exhibit very fine length on the balanced and refreshing finale. Like the Bonnes Mares, this needs to develop more overall depth, but it should be capable of that with time in bottle.

Both the Bart Grands Crus have been made with 40% whole bunch vinification and 50% new wood. Pierre Bart thinks that the Clos de Bèze tends to taste almost too ready to drink at bottling, so now at the end of fermentation he brings the temperature back up and gives the wine a couple of powerful punchdowns to fix a bit more tannin. The colour is less deep than Bonnes Mares, the nose a little firmer and it is true that the tannins at the end bring a little more youthful bitterness. But the quality of the fruit all round is super sensual, really fine and exceptionally long. An interesting experiment.
