Critics scores
94 Robert Parker
Cedar, resin, licorice, cardamom, blackberry, and plum paste in the nose of Perrot-Minot’s 2008 Mazoyeres-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes migrate onto a palpably extract- and tannin-rich (albeit fine-grained) palate, accompanied by deep richness of beef stock. The juicy, tart yet ripe fresh fruit edge keeps this from becoming austere, as medicinal herbal extractions, iodine, peat, and crushed stone saturate the palate and leave your mouth a quiver but practically exhausted. This take-no-prisoners expression of its site should be at least a 15-20 year keeper.
93 Wine Spectator
Rich aromas of black cherry and wood smoke lead off in this intense red, as flavors of cherry, spice and tobacco keep coursing through to the lingering finish. A bit knees and elbows now, but has all the elements in good proportions. Best from 2015 through 2028. 30 cases imported. –BS
Producer
Domaine Perrot Minot
With a history dating back to the 19th century, Domaine Perrot-Minot combines the vineyards of two families, the Sigaut family from Chambolle-Musigny and the Morizot family of Morey-Saint-Denis. Today, the estate is run by third generation, Christophe Perrot-Minot. With his knowledge of wine, Christophe has been producing wines of great conviction. The production here is extremely limited, with extra-care taken in the vineyards and cellar, the resulting wines carry an unbelievable quality. Coming from incredibly historic vines, the estate produces stellar Grands Crus, Premiers Crus and Villages wines. Antonio Galloni from The Wine Advocate describes the estate as “one of the most exciting domaines in Burgundy.”
