About the estate:

 

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide to the Best Wines of France

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France

Rated estate (2014 guide): 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)

About the estate:

“Bruno Clair produces classic Burgundies that are young, lively, and crisp; they are often only fully appreciated after a few years of aging. They are immediately recognizable by their refined texture and beautiful length. The estate has showcased the terroirs of Marsannay as well as a fine selection of Gevrey-Chambertin wines, including the magnificent Clos Saint-Jacques and the estate’s crowning jewel: the elegant and refined Chambertin Clos de Bèze. The whites, though less well-known, are just as remarkable. The estate’s consistency is worthy of praise.”

Review by Mr. FABRICE G. Published on 12/22/2014

Very elegant, both in color and on the palate. A lovely wine that pairs perfectly with red meat—preferably served rare. It has a lovely acidity—typical of this vintage—that blends beautifully with notes of raspberry and blackcurrant.
