The aromas are dominated by floral, vegetal and spice notes, followed by a beam of pure cherry. Turns deeper and more complex as the finish unleashes fruit, sandalwood and mineral flavors. Excellent length. Best from 2016 through 2030. 125 cases imported. –BS

Quite pale in color for a grand cru, the Clos des Lambrays 2011 has a very spicy bouquet with touches of wild mint and damp woodland scents coming through with aeration. The palate is light and slightly fleshy: fresh strawberry and red cherry leading to a light, peppery finish. It does lacks some substance at the beginning, although aeration sees it gaining more intensity while retaining its delineation and focus.

Domaine des Lambrays
Representing the nobility of Burgundy wines, Domaine des Lambrays was originally founded in 14th century, although it wasn’t until 1981, that the property was promoted to a Grand Cru status. As one of the oldest Grand Cru vineyards in the regions, Clos des Lambrays, has passed through the hands of many vinous players over the years. Since 2014 however, the estate has been under the ownership of the Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton group. Planted to 100% Pinot Noir vines, the walled-off vineyard totals around 9 hectares. Stretching over the steepest slopes of Morey Grand Crus, the Clos des Lambrays is made up of three main vineyards which reveal their own distinct terroirs. In the end, the wines flawlessly portray the delicate character and sophisticated taste of their holdings within the Morey-Saint-Denis area of Burgundy’s Côtes de Nuits.
