I found many fine wines at Le Roi Chambertin – 2017 is a delightful vintage … and I already tasted some of the wines there.

Here are a few known or less known:

Domaine Tawse/Domaine Marchand Tawse – lovely wines – I tasted the range in early June 2018 … and they are just delightful .. both the Lavaux and the Mazis-Chambertin are well worth collecting.

Domaine Cecile Tremblay offered a taste of the Chapelle-Chambertin – needless to say … lovely wine in the making – a lovely and actually relatively forward wine.

The Faiveley lineup showed very well – I have more on the Faiveley wines in a separate article – the Clos des Issarts, the Clos de Beze and the Cazetiers are showing delightfully.

Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet have made some gorgeous 2017s … continuing the positive development from 2015 and 2016. This is top end … especially the Cazetieres and the Lavaux St. Jacques were showing beautifully.

A new producer for me – Domaine Jerome Gayleyrand a relatively new strong talent – organic and biodynamic methods – making very vivid wines. These are very interesting wines – presumably low sulphur – lively and refined. Three village wines at this tasting – La Justice, En Billard and En Croisette … different yet all good – with the two last being the best on the day at lest. These are indeed lovely wines.

Domaine Marc Roi are lovely and I already tasted the lineup during the summer – a bit reduced on the day.

Domaine Camille Giroud – now with Carel Voorhuis making the wines – at a very fine level. Lavaut St. Jacques and Charmes Chambertin were all fine – as the village Les Crais.

Finally Domaine Duroche was showing the lovely Lavaut St. Jacques … a gorgeous wine.

Le Roi Chambertin mocht naast deze mooie verhaaltjes ook iets zeggen over de prijs van deze wijnen.
Maar daar bewaren ze het stilzwijgen over.
