2013 Pierre Damoy, Chambertin Grand Cru 6x75cl

Vinous – 91-94+

Damoy’s 2013 Chambertin comes across as decidedly wild and powerful in style. Juicy black cherries, mint, sage, lavender and violets flesh out as the 2013 shows off its breadth and density. Today, the Chambertin is quite raw, as the malos aren’t quite finished. I suspect the 2013 will be quite a bit more complete and harmonious in a few months, once the elements meld together further. Still, the 2013 is impressive just the same. [Antonio Galloni, 04/01/2015]
