1996 Chambertin Clos de Beze Grand Cru, Dominique Laurent

"Healthy medium-deep red. Sappy, liqueur-like nose exudes a noble rose petal perfume. Great purity and concentration of tangy red fruit flavor. Classy and intricate. Great subtle back end, with suave tannins covered by fresh fruit. Really extraordinary sweetness and finesse."  Stephen Tanzer, Vinous.com, March 1998
