The 2017 Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru is showing brilliantly from bottle, wafting from the glass with a deep and complex bouquet of wild berries, peonies, potpourri, dark chocolate, cinnamon and sweet soil tones that are even more beautifully integrated than they were when I tasted the wine from barrel last year. On the palate, it's full-bodied, velvety and enveloping, with a deep and multidimensional core, succulent acids and beautifully refined, powdery tannins, concluding with a long and mineral finish. This is an immensely elegant, graceful Ruchottes that has come together brilliantly.
