Domaine Pierre Damoy, a revered estate in Burgundy's Gevrey-Chambertin region, has been producing exceptional wines since the early 1990s under the stewardship of Pierre Damoy. The 2017 Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru exemplifies the domaine's commitment to quality and tradition. Crafted from meticulously tended Pinot Noir vines in the esteemed Clos de Bèze vineyard, this wine reflects the unique terroir and the winemaker's dedication to expressing its character. The 2017 vintage benefitted from favorable climatic conditions, resulting in grapes of optimal ripeness and balance.
This Grand Cru presents an elegant bouquet of red fruits, including blackberries and raspberries, accented by notes of white pepper. On the palate, it offers a harmonious blend of juicy raspberry and cherry flavors, underpinned by earthy nuances and subtle wood influence. The wine's broad-shouldered structure is balanced by refined elegance, featuring mellow tannins and a long, lingering finish. Its vibrant freshness and concentrated flavors make it an excellent companion to dishes such as roast beef, sirloin, game birds, and mature cheeses like Époisses. With a longevity of over 25 years, this wine promises to evolve gracefully, rewarding those who choose to cellar it.
