The 2016 Chapelle-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru, which lost half its production due to frost, has quite an intense bouquet with slightly darker fruit than Perrot-Minot's Charmes-Chambertin: raspberry mingling with blackcurrant and blueberry. With aeration in the glass, it becomes quite floral and offers attractive wilted violet petal scents. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannin. I love the balance and poise of this Chapelle-Chambertin, nothing too extroverted or showy, just all about the tension and the mineralité that comes through on the finish.

The 2015 Chapelle-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru was more expressive and vibrant on the nose compared to the Griotte Chambertin at this early stage with vivacious blackberry, bergamot, mulberry and violets aromas that come bounding from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple and very fine tannin, a keen line of acidity and a sense of composure and harmony that I found wanting in the Griotte. It gently caresses the senses and leaves a residue of spice on the tongue after it has departed. This is a superb offering from Christophe Perrot-Minot.

The 2013 Chapelle-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru is slightly deeper in color than the Charmes-Chambertin at this early stage. It already offers crystalline red cherry and strawberry fruit that I hope will be in situ once in bottle. The fruit is a little darker, an equal mixture of red and black fruit flavors. The palate is medium-bodied with a gentle grip. There is clearly good extract here, and it concludes with a masculine, foursquare, slightly chalky finish that suggests it will require several years in bottle. This is very fine.
