MAZOYERES CHAMBERTIN VIEILLES VIGNES 2005
Domaine Perrot Minot
Côtes de Nuits
The 2005 Mazoyeres-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes – from 75-year-old vines in stony, iron-rich soil up against the Latricieres and Combottes – displays aroma of deep, dark, liqueur-like berry fruit laced with wood smoke, aromatic herbs and chocolate; a brothy, rich, carnal as well as sweetly berry-fruited palate impression; obvious, yet-fine grained tannins, and an almost traumatic intensity and persistence. This mysterious and powerful yet elegant masterpiece-in-the-making looks to require even more time in a cellar than the Charmes to do it justice. 96-97 WA
Estimate $1,500-$1,700
