Tasted Sunday, September 30, 2007 by Burgundy Al with 500 views
The Chicago Lieu-dit Cru got together Sunday night and opened nine bottles of 2005 Burgundy, ranging from Bourgogne through Grand Cru. Bottom line, I continue to be impressed with almost all the ‘05’s – at all levels in both the more “modern” and “traditional” styles.
2005 Henri Boillot Meursault
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Meursault
The aromas were ripe and impressive. Flavors showed tons of ripe stone fruit with lots of minerality and very nice spice. Wine kept improving as it got a bit warmer (plus more air). Outstanding Villages wine. I bought a case from Premier Cru when they had it on sale (pre reviews) and wish I bought more.
