| Community Tasting Notes (average 91.1 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 12 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by aagrawal on 3/18/2021 & rated 91 points: Dinner with the wine group (Zoom): Tasted blind. Light ruby, slight bricking; aromatic, slightly smoky, black cherry, slight tar; palate is light-medium bodied, high acidity, low alcohol, black cherry and darker fruits combined with a touch of soy and umami, excellent persistence through the midpalate; finish is medium-plus. Seems high quality, at early maturity, but still with time ahead of it. 91 (1000 views) | | | Tasted by Richard P Howden on 3/18/2021 & rated 92 points: March 18 Zoom Group: Nose: strawberry, cherry, hoisin, earthy notes. P. tart a little tannin, earthy dark fruit, balance, very pale. Med+ finish. Quite good, based on the nose I thought perhaps a little older, but palate is very robust. Well resolved at this point.

What a lovely wine. Notes of cherry, black fruits, spice and roses. Rich smooth palate. lovely. (1680 views) | | | Tasted by Ramberg on 3/2/2013 & rated 92 points: Beautiful stuff!
Great village from a very good producer.
Delivers more than the label indicates.
Very Chambolle.
Good balance, clean acid and tart, sharp and clean fruit.
Cranberries, wild strawberries and oh so fresh minerals.
I love this vintage, as it really has the terroir so present in the wines.
Beautiful, light, transparent and feminine, as I want my Chambolles to be.
Delicious! (4857 views) | | | Tasted by Shorepower on 2/24/2013: Dekanterade denna också efter ett första smakprov. Skön sältigt näsa , mycket bär. Friska svarta vinbär möter i smaken som är 2008ig sval. Mycket trevligt vin som levererar lite över sin klassning. Årgång eller producent, vet inte (4329 views) | | | Tasted by Shorepower on 12/16/2012: Sval, fin bärig näsa med mineraler och friskt hav. Samma känsla finns i smaken, mycket svarta vinbär och jordgubbar. Medfylligt vin med bra balans och eftersmak. Blint hade jag nog klassat upp det här vinet. (3902 views) | | | Tasted by Argrath on 3/31/2012 & rated 91 points: Lovely, charming nose with strawberry perfume, sandalwood, cinnamon, integrated toasty oak and violets. Herbs add an extra dimension. Very clean. Very Beautiful.
Smooth, soft and concentrated palate. Medium body with good grip. Succulent and spicy. Damned good for its level. Charming oakiness and refreshing acidity. The winner in our "village" contest. (3295 views) | | | Tasted by RHabolin on 11/17/2011 & rated 91 points: WOW! this is great! a very strange nose, bit of fried fish, ( i know, but thats what it was ) quite closed. but the taste is AMAZING! very nice fruit, strawberry, red berries, currant, long finish, very easy to drink, i think overtime there will be more depth, obviously, but still a great village wine. god i love pinot!

U.S. Importer (Addt'l Info)Pinot Noir Varietal character (Appellation America) | Varietal article (Wikipedia)
Pinot Noir is the Noble red grape of Burgundy, capable of ripening in a cooler climate, which Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot will not reliably do. It is unpredictable and difficult both to grow and to vinify, but results in some of the finest reds in the world. It is believed to have been selected from wild vines two thousand years ago. It is also used in the production of champagne. In fact, more Pinot Noir goes into Champagne than is used in all of the Cote d'Or! It is also grown in Alsace, Jura, Germany, the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Romania, Switzerland, Austria, Croatia, Serbia, Italy, and so forth, with varying degrees of success.
Pinot Noir is one of the world's most prestigious grapes. It is very difficult to grow and thrives well in France, especially in Champagne and Burgundy. Pinot Noir thrives less in hot areas, is picky on soil, and deserves some oak storage.
Pinot Noir, or Blauburgunder / Spätburgunder in German, is a blue grapevine - and, as the German name suggests, the grape comes originally from Burgundy in France.
The grape, which thrives in calcareous soils, is used primarily for the production of red wine, and it is widely regarded as producing some of the best wines in the world. The wine style is often medium-bodied with high fruit acidity and soft tannins. It can be quite peculiar in fragrance and taste, and not least in structure - which may be why it is referred to as "The Grapes Ballerina".
Pinot Noir is also an important ingredient in sparkling wines, not least in champagne since it is fruity, has good acidity and contains relatively little tannins.
The grape is considered quite demanding to grow. The class itself consists of tightly packed grapes, which makes it more sensitive to rot and other diseases.
Pinot Noir changes quite easily and is genetically unstable. It buds and matures early which results in it often being well ripened. Climate is important for this type of grape. It likes best in cool climates - in warm climates the wines can be relaxed and slightly pickled.
In cooler climates, the wine can get a hint of cabbage and wet leaves, while in slightly warmer regions we often find notes of red berries (cherries, strawberries, raspberries, currants), roses and slightly green notes when the wine is young. With age, more complex aromas of forest floor, fungi and meat emerge.
In Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Hungary, it often produces light wines with less character. However, it has produced very good results in California, Oregon and New Zealand.
With its soft tannins and delicate aroma, it is excellent for white fish, chicken and light meat. For the stored wines you can serve small game. Classic duck breast is a matter of course, a Boeuf Burgundy and Pinot Noir are pure happiness.
Pinot Noir loses quality by over-harvesting.
Pinot Noir is prone to diseases, especially rot and mildew. Viruses cause major problems especially in Burgundy.
Pinot Noir are large round grapes with thin skins. Relatively high in alcohol content. Medium rich tannins and good with acid.
As a young person, Pinot Noir has a distinctly fruity character such as raspberries, cherries and strawberries.
A mature Pinot Noir, the taste is different. Cherry goes into plum and prune flavors. It smells of rotten leaves, coffee, moist forest floor and animal wine. This must be experienced.
In warm climates you find boiled plum, some rustic, little acid.
If the grapes are over-grown, the wine will be thin, with little color and flavor.Vieilles Vignes Old Vine/Vieilles Vignes (Wikipedia)France Vins de France (Office National Interprofessionnel des Vins ) | Pages Vins, Directory of French Winegrowers | French Wine (Wikipedia)

2022 harvest: idealwine.info | wine-searcher.comBurgundy Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)
Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
Côte de Nuits on weinlagen.infoChambolle-MusignyChambolle-Musigny is one of the smallest appellations of the Côte de Nuits, although given the tiny, fragmented nature of Burgundy vineyards, it manages to fit two exceptional Grand Crus (Bonnes Mares and Le Musigny) and a couple of dozen Premieres Crus. These wines are known for delicacy and tend to be light in body, but concentrated and with fragrant bouquets. The critic Robert M. Parker Jr. quotes French poet Gaston Roupnel as likening the region's wines to "silk and lace." |
