The 2009 Chambertin is seriously intense in its deep, intricate layers of fruit. Floral overtones and hints of licorice add complexity as the wine opens up over time. The Chambertin finishes with substantial energy while maintaining tons of aromatic freshness and complexity. In short, it is a marvelous, complete wine with many years of brilliant drinking ahead. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2039. Pierre Damoy’s 2009s have turned out magnificently. Damoy remains one of my favorite under-the-radar growers. Score: 94 Antonio Galloni, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2019-2039 01 April 2012 |

This is also quite reserved and only aggressive swirling coaxes notes of dark berries, plum, violet, earth and wet stone from the glass. The extremely concentrated and powerful mid-palate adds weight to the intensely mineral-driven and cool broad-shouldered flavors that possess chewy and mouth coating tannins that are largely, if not completely, buffered by the remarkable amounts of dry extract that is present in abundance on the focused, moderately austere and strikingly long finish. An explosive wine built for the very long-term. Score: 96 Allen Meadows, Burghound Maturity: 2029+ 10 January 2012 |
