Ratings & Tasting Notes

Tasted at the Denis Mortet Chambertin vertical, the 2012 Chambertin Grand Cru is a quite wonderful wine that vindicates my assessment from barrel. It has quite an understated bouquet with hints of rose petal and damp(ish) earth tincturing the red berry fruit, unfurling with each swirl of the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine detail. There is a succulence to this Chambertin, one that is embroidered with extremely fine tannins and blessed with a vibrant, almost citrus-like finish. It might not covet grand ambitions like the 2010, and yet it stands shoulder to shoulder in terms of its poise and finesse. This is a magnificent Chambertin

Moderate wood all but dominates the intensely sauvage wild red and dark currant, spice, menthol and wet stone nuances. The large-scaled flavors are pungently earthy with an abundance of mineral hints that continue onto the explosively long and impeccably well-balanced finish. This is a big but not particularly rustic or austere Chambertin that should age for a very long time. 2012 is one of the better vintages for the Mortet Chambertin and I am more than just a little impressed.
