Marly limestone enriched by traces of iron is the primary soil type in Clos de Bèze vineyard parcels, and this vineyard has under cultivation for a very long time, since the 7th century. The 2002 Bouchard Père & Fils Chambertin Clos de Bèze is rustic and austere, though charmingly so, with barnyard, wet hay, game, damp tilth, and dried cherry notes. Despite this, it's quite bright, with moderate, woody tannins and a raw, feral streak running through its mid-weight frame. Medium plus finish. 13.0% ABV
