2010 Domaine Pierre Damoy Chambertin Grand Cru

The 2010 Chambertin is a big, rich wine endowed with considerable depth. The aromas and flavors have yet to fully come together, which is not entirely surprising as the malos were very late that year. The wine finds some of its focus with time in the glass. A round, textured finish supported by muscular yet well-integrated tannins is totally inviting. Floral notes add an attractive note of brightness. All of the elements need time to come together. Nevertheless, this is a highly promising wine. Damoy's Chambertin parcels were planted in 1973 and 1974. (AG)
