Bouchard Père & Fils Chambertin-Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru 2012

This is also quite reduced in fact so much so that nothing is discernable, not even the spice. This is bigger, richer and more powerful than the Chapelle with more mid-palate concentration as well with a lovely mineral streak that runs the length of the wine before culminating in an explosive finish that really does a slow build. I very much like the overall depth yet it's all but certain that more will develop as this possesses ample amounts of underlying material. A classic Bèze that is built to age. Drink: 2029+. Score - 93-95. (Allen Meadows, burghound.com, April 15, 2014)
