2020 Domaine Faiveley Latricieres Chambertin Grand Cru

Other Reviews....
An overtly floral-suffused nose speaks of even more restrained notes of black cherry, earth, the sauvage and discreet spice nuances. The sleek, intense, refined and mineral-driven middle weight flavors possess cuts-like-a-knife delineation on the youthfully austere bitter pit fruit-inflected finish. Note that this is quite firm and will need time to both add depth and further flesh out. Drink: 2035+.

Continuing this site's hot streak, the 2020 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru wafts from the glass with notions of wild berries, peonies, exotic spices, sweet soil tones, espresso roast and bergamot. Full-bodied, velvety and layered, it's deep and concentrated, with lively acids and a layered, vibrant core of fruit, concluding with a chalky finish.

The 2020 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru is one of the best Faiveley wines on the nose: very good definition and mineralité here, poised and focused, not shortchanging anyone in terms of power. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, fine acidity and grip with a dense and quite weighty finish, yet it manages to maintain finesse. Uncompromising...in a good way. Drink: 2026-2050.

Medium full purple, this has a lively full raspberry note without exaggeration. There is a just a little bit of white pepper here too, like the Lavaux, but it doesn’t come from whole bunch. This follows through very well on the palate, with great length and perfect balance, and just a touch more fruit volume than the Echezeaux.

Jasper Morris - Inside Burgundy

Silky, exuding exotic spices around a core of ripe cherry, pomegranate, raspberry and rose aromas and flavors. Offers a complex and youthful profile that delivers balance and harmony, yet this will require several years to fully express its potential. The aftertaste is seemingly endless and remarkably spicy. Best from 2027 through 2048.
