Laurent Ponsot Chambertin Grand Cru Cuvee Du Chene 750ml
| Vintage: | 2020 |

| Description: | The dark ruby colour of this wine can go as far as black cherry. Liquorice is the characteristic aroma of Chambertin, but blackcurrant, fruit kernel, moss, undergrowth and spices may also feature in the bouquet. On the palate, power, opulence and elegance combine to create full-bodied, complex, vigorous wines, with voluptuous substance. The power of Chambertin tannins creates a clash of textures between the wine's aromatic complexity and its opulence. Coq au Chambertin is of course recommended and if you only have one bottle of Chambertin, put it in the casserole and drink another wine with the dish! This wine should be laid down for at least 10 years and will keep for an exceptionally long time. Chambertin made history in 640 when the nuns of Bèze Abbey to the north of Dijon expanded their property. The nuns' superintendent was known as Monsieur Bertin and he paid daily visits to their vineyard or "champ de vigne", giving rise to "champ Bertin" or Bertin's vineyard… |
