Continuing this site's hot streak, the 2020 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru wafts from the glass with notions of wild berries, peonies, exotic spices, sweet soil tones, espresso roast and bergamot. Full-bodied, velvety and layered, it's deep and concentrated, with lively acids and a layered, vibrant core of fruit, concluding with a chalky finish.

The 2020 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru is one of the best Faiveley wines on the nose: very good definition and mineralité here, poised and focused, not short-changing anyone in terms of power. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, fine acidity and grip with a dense and quite weighty finish, yet it manages to maintain finesse. Uncompromising...in a good way.

Cask sample. Mid cherry. Open, scented, seductively sweet and fresh. Less seductive on the palate, with a slight rubbery note – maybe a touch reductive? The tannins show great finesse even though the whole is extremely embryonic. Chewy, dry, not really ready to taste, let alone drink. (JH)
