🏰The 2023 Joseph Roty Griottes-Chambertin Grand Cru is from a 【very young vintage in Burgundy, anticipated to produce wines with vibrant fruit and excellent potential, though still in their nascent stages】. Griottes-Chambertin is the smallest of Gevrey-Chambertin's nine Grand Crus, known for producing powerful, opulent, and elegant Pinot Noir wines with vivid coloration ranging from deep ruby to black-cherry. Their aromas suggest strawberry, blackcurrant, and gooseberry, as well as fruit pits, liquorice, and spices, with violet, moss, and underbrush also likely to be present. Given its extreme youth, tasting notes are based on barrel samples or early impressions, highlighting its intense red and black fruit and floral notes, combined with subtle spices. This Grand Cru promises to evolve towards more complex aromas of forest undergrowth and leather over time. 🍴 This powerful and complex Grand Cru demands equally complex, high-toned dishes. Feathered game (grilled or in wine sauce), roast lamb in gravy, chicken in red wine sauce, or glazed poultry would be excellent. It also pairs well with rib steak and soft-centred cheeses. For an Asian pairing, consider roasted squab, or a rich braised duck with mushrooms. 🥂 This is a wine for serious collectors and those with patience, destined for future grand celebrations or a significant vertical tasting. It's far too young for immediate enjoyment, requiring significant cellaring. Serving temperature for young wines is 12-14°C, but for older wines, 14-16°C.
