Chambertin Clos de Bèze Ouvrées Rodin, Domaine Faiveley 2012

Tasting Notes

**Note: a selection of the oldest vines in one of their 3 parcels; in 2012 five barrels, or about 1500 bottles were produced**
This is similar to the regular cuvée save for two aspects: this is a bit riper and notably more complex. The large-scaled flavors are also more concentrated with seemingly endless reserves of palate staining dry extract that also buffers the extremely firm tannic spine on the explosively long, balanced and powerful finish. This is stunningly good with massive potential though again, note that plenty of patience will be required.
