"The 2012 Clos de Bèze from Domaine Burguet is a great wine, offering up all of the purity of fruit, fidelity of terroir and structural majesty of this great grand cru. The deep, primary and potentially stunning nose offers up a sappy blend of red plums, cherries, raw cocoa, a beautifully complex base of minerality, gamebirds, floral tones and a stylish coating of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and nascently complex, with bottomless depth of sappy fruit at the core, great focus and grip, fine-grained tannins and impeccable balance on the very, very long, pure and soil-driven finish. A stunning bottle in the making."
