Domaine Jacques Prieur 2009 Chambertin Pinot Noir (Chambertin)

  • Cellar Selection
  1. $360
A powerful, classic Chambertin, intensely structured and tannic. The sweet black fruit is potentially enormous, still finding its place among the tannins. Spice, with a mineral streak, gives the wine added complexity. Very dense in texture, this will age 10 years and many more.  — R.V.  (9/1/2011)

Alex Gambal 2009 Chambertin Pinot Noir (Chambertin)

  1. $335
A big and structured wine, packed with firm, powerful tannins. Smoky wood and a dark brooding character dominate this impressive wine, but there is plenty of sweet fruit underneath all this density, waiting to develop as the wine ages.  — R.V.  (9/1/2011)

Camille Giroud 2008 Chambertin Pinot Noir (Chambertin)

  • Cellar Selection
  1. $272
A massive wine, firmly structured with dense and powerful tannins. This is a wine for long-term aging, with its dark black fruits and chunky feel. It is still just starting out; cellar for 10 years.  — R.V.  (9/1/2011)

Albert Bichot 2010 Domaine du Clos Frantin Pinot Noir (Chambertin)

  • Cellar Selection
The king of the Gevrey-Chambertin grand crus, this powerful, concentrated Chambertin is a blockbuster. It is currently dominated by its structure, which hides the ripe fruit. Made from grapes sourced from the upper portion of the Chambertin vineyard, this selection also has a mineral element, and it promises considerable aging potential.  — R.V.  (4/1/2013)

Maison Jessiaume 2008 Pinot Noir (Chambertin)

  • Cellar Selection
  1. $115
At the pinnacle of Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambertin Grand Cru produces immensely powerful wines. This Jessiaume fits the profile well, while also having delicious juiciness to go with the dark tannins and acidity. The result is stylish as well as concentrated. Age for 10 years at least.  — R.V.  (5/1/2011)

Maison Jessiaume 2009 Pinot Noir (Chambertin)

  • Cellar Selection
  • Online Exclusive
  1. $266
This is heavy on the wood, but it’s so rich in fruit as well. An immensely concentrated wine that’s powered by its dark tannins and flavors of ripe blackberry, loganberry juice and spice. The acidity is straight as an arrow, giving the wine good lift.  — R.V.  (8/1/2012)

Louis Latour 2003 Chambertin les Heritiers Latour Pinot Noir (Chambertin)

  1. $220
A wine that explodes with powerful, ripe flavors. It offers complex black fruit flavors, and tons of spice plus ample acidity. This great wine should develop over many years. Imported by Louis Latour.  — R.V.  (9/1/2005)

Chanson Père et Fils 2003 Pinot Noir (Chambertin)

For a 2003, this is surprisingly austere. There is a dark side to the wine, very closed up still, with dry fruits and tannins dominating. It needs time to open up, as befits its exalted status of Grand Cru in the Burgundy hierarchy. There’s great finishing acidity, along with red fruits.  — R.V.  (3/1/2007)
