Discover Domaine Drouhin-Laroze Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru 2008
The Domaine Drouhin-Laroze Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru 2008 is a distinguished and age-worthy red Burgundy crafted from a prestigious 1.5-hectare parcel of vines planted in 1949. This exceptional Pinot Noir delivers a complex and expressive bouquet of spicy red and blue fruits, with subtle oak integration, violets, and signature Gevrey-Chambertin earthy minerality.
On the palate, it shows remarkable depth and richness, with a natural sweetness that softens the structured tannins. The finish is long, elegant, and true to its Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru pedigree – built for graceful ageing and increasingly rare in the market.
Rated 92–94 points by Allen Meadows (Burghound), this is a collector’s wine and a superb investment for Burgundy connoisseurs.

Ideal for Cellaring or Drinking Now
With over 15 years of maturity, this wine is showing beautifully today but will continue to evolve gracefully for another decade or more. A perfect centrepiece for a vertical tasting or special occasion.
Expert Review
Allen Meadows, Burghound (92–94 points)
“An expressive and elegant mélange of oak-trimmed and very spicy red and blue pinot fruit aromas nuanced by hints of violets and the expected pungent Gevrey earth. Rich and particularly full flavours with a natural sweetness buffer firm tannins on the wonderfully persistent finish. A lovely and entirely classic Bèze built to age.”
