Chambertin Grand Cru Maison Thomas Bassot 1970
The wine
Chambertin, produced from vines planted on gentle slopes, is the grand seigneur of Burgundy wines and Napoleon's favourite. The soil contains limestone and is rich in ferruginous marls. Full-bodied, sappy, rich-flavoured yet supple, this wine develops a highly-complex aroma. Its bright, deep ruby-red colour is a delight to the eye. The fragrances are both powerful and distinguished. As a young wine, it evokes dark cherry, liquorice and truffle. After about fifteen years of maturing it develops notes of leather and candied fruit.
