Bouchard Pere & Fils 2006 Pinot Noir (Chambertin Clos de Bèze)
- Cellar Selection
- $575
Big and bold, this is real Chambertin, a dense mouthful of plum fruit and tannin. It is foursquare, solid but not overbearing, leaving room for a delicious mix of black fruits and power leavened with some acidity. Age this wine for 10 years.

Louis Jadot 2004 Chambertin Clos de Bèze Pinot Noir (Chambertin Clos de Bèze)
- Cellar Selection
- $152
If you ever needed to know why Grand Crus are better vineyards and make better wine than the rest, this wine is the perfect example. It has all the richness and opulence of great Pinot Noir, but at the same time, with its firm structure and plum and damson flavors, it magnifies those qualities into something impressive and long-lasting.

Louis Jadot 2003 Pinot Noir (Chambertin Clos de Bèze)
- $200
Huge, dusty tannins and ripe fruit black plum flavors make for an opulent, rich wine. This is a magnificent, power-packed combination of fruit and structure, and a superb wine, that will develop over many years. Imported by Kobrand.

Bouchard Pere & Fils 2007 Pinot Noir (Chambertin Clos de Bèze)
- Cellar Selection
- $259
Still very young, this is showing the proper staying power of a powerful wine. The structure is complex and dense, the plum and cranberry fruits are wrapped in tannins and hints of wood. The wine powers through the palate, promising long-term aging. A great success for the vintage.

Domaine Drouhin-Laroze 2004 Chambertin-Clos-de-Bèze Pinot Noir (Chambertin Clos de Bèze)
- Cellar Selection
- $169
This wine is all power on a leash. It is a wine that is waiting to escape from its youth, there’s that much intensity. It’s not huge, but it is concentrated, and the black fruits and acidity are already powering through. It needs 5–6 years.

Chanson Père et Fils 2007 Pinot Noir (Chambertin Clos de Bèze)
- Cellar Selection
With its solidly dry tannins, this is a powerhouse, very dark in texture, very structured. The fresh fruit is just showing from all this intensity. Still very youthful, this is an impressive wine for aging over many years.

Bouchard Pere & Fils 2004 Chambertin-Clos-de-Bèze Pinot Noir (Chambertin Clos de Bèze)
- $235
Rich, generous, almost opulent, this brings together great layers of black fruits and figs, wood smoothness and dense, sensual ripeness allied to acidity. There’s power here, too, but it’s a wine to revel in.

Chanson Père et Fils 2008 Pinot Noir (Chambertin Clos de Bèze)
- $220
For the vintage, a powerful wine that shows all the structure of Gevrey-Chambertin and preserves the black jelly fruit and acidity. The edge of fresh wild strawberry gives the wine a great final fruity aftertaste.
