A new cuvée for Arnaud, and hardly a bad location! The Chambertin-Clos de Bèze is the only négoce wine in the portfolio but it comes from an excellent grower that Arnaud tells us works to his high standards. From vines pushing 80 years old, Mortet crafts this wine as he does his Domaine’s Chambertin: aging it in two-thirds new (but very light toast) Cavin barrels. One third of the fruit was whole bunch, two thirds destemmed, with about half of this done by hand. An incredible wine.

Arnaud Mortet Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru 2022

Reviews

“Arnaud used only about one-third whole cluster as there were a lot of small, millerandé berries here. The wine delivers a profusion of earthy spices, rich black fruits and sultry minerality. Noble, chiseled tannins and vibrant acidity keep the palate bustling.”
97 points, Christy Canterbury MW, Tim Atkin Burgundy Report
“The 2022 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru is the maiden vintage, the only cuvée Mortet does not farm himself, though he assured that he buys top quality grapes from the grower who owns a large part of the Grand Cru. It has a refined bouquet with pure redcurrant and wild strawberry fruit, wonderful mineralité, crushed stone and oyster shell. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chewy tannins on the entry. It has fine depth but perhaps not quite the complexity of some of the other cuvées, though a disarming pepper note on the finish conveys a sense of joie-de-vivre.”
