Tasting Notes
Robert Parker 92
The 2009 Chambertin is a big, powerful wine that sits on the edge of over ripeness. The Chambertin is literally bursting at the seams with fruit. Sweet red berries and flowers are some of the layers of nuance that take shape on the sensual finish. Tasted from tank. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2022. David and Nicolas Rossignol began harvesting on September 12th. They used a fair amount of whole clusters, ranging from 33% or so for the 1ers up to 50% for the Grand Crus. The wines saw 14-21 days of cuvaison. After debourbage, the wines were racked into oak, roughly 15% new barrels for the villages, 33% for the 1ers and 50% for the Grand Crus. The malos were early and quick, and the wines were bottled between January and March 2011. A Becky Wasserman Selection, Le Serbet, Beaune, FR; tel. +33 (380) ” 262 060
