The 2013 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru (planted at the same time as the Griotte incidentally) has a very pure, mineral-drive bouquet that has a touch more delineation than the Griotte at the moment. The palate is structured and very focused: real energy and tension here with a crisp, tense finish that lingers long in the mouth. This might very well turn out to be one of Laurent Ponsot’s best 2013 Grand Crus.

Don't miss! The very spicy and exceptionally fresh, cool and airy earth-tinged nose features notes of red dark berry fruit aromas that are slightly riper than those of the Griotte. The supple, round and wonderfully rich medium weight plus flavors possess outstanding depth and length on the explosive finish where the supporting structure arrives quite suddenly. For years the Griotte has been the slightly better wine compared to the Chapelle but things seem to have shifted in favor of the Chapelle recently, probably because it seems to possess just a bit more dry extract; in any event that is the case in 2013 and because of it I give a small qualitative edge to the Chapelle. Drink 2028+.

Planted the same time as, and next door to, Griotte and yet very different. Relatively light nose. Almost flat. Not at all showy but very sophisticated finish. Cool and super refreshing. Very fine. (JR)
