Roty Griotte Chambertin 1996 750mL (Soiled/Torn Label)

"Soft, seductive, very forward and quite focused pinot fruit with flavors that already display outstanding depth and grand cru intensity. As wonderful as these elements are though, it is the stunning length that really distinguishes this wine. Despite the forward character of the fruit, there is a definite reserve to the flavors, as though it is revealing only a part of its ultimate potential; if so, my score will prove to be conservative. Much like the Charmes, this should also evolve positively for many years to come." - Burghound, BH92, tasted 10/2001
