"Ripe black cherry, cassis, and rose petal are accented by sage and black pepper in the nose as well as on the silken palate of the Le Moine 2006 Chambertin Clos De Beze (which had not yet been bottled when I last tasted it). A seductive persistence of inner-mouth floral perfume enhances the sense of buoyancy and finesse of a wine that defies any of the difficulties encountered in hailed-on Gevrey grands crus from other addresses. This finishes like the mesmerizing, buoyant play of a fountain of deep, juicy black fruits and liquid floral perfume. The pungency that helps give this wine its sense of invigoration comes from herb, spice, and almost tactilely chalky flavor elements without its interrupting an at once soothing yet refreshing and animating flow of rich fruit."
