Griotte Chambertin 2015 Claude Dugat

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (98)

There is just one and a half barrels of the 2015 Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru this year, so good luck finding it. The nose was cut from the same cloth as the Charmes-Chambertin: sultry and bashful at first, demanding a lot of coaxing from the glass. However, it repays patience and after three to four minutes, it unfolded with tempting redcurrant, cranberry and wet limestone scents that are very well defined. The palate is linear, structured and very focused. This is not a flamboyant Griotte-Chambertin, but you can feel that energy pulsating through the wine. There is superb tension and energy here, very sophisticated and without question the best Griotte-Chambertin that I have tasted at Dugat, perhaps an omen of treasure to come from the domaine in future years.
