March 24, 2024 - I brought this btl for Jim's BD dinner and served it double decanted and drank after 2-3 hrs. It was still a very young wine with subtle nose and tight structure.

December 10, 2023 - It served along with other 2005 GC in my BD dinner. I openned it 2 hours ahead but it still was very tight at moment, still young.

August 23, 2023 - Majestic reddish-purple. Notes of black cherry compote, grilled meats, truffles, sauvage underbrush. Satisfying earthy plum preserve flavors punctuated with a sense of gaminess, well-balanced sweetness, flavors and acidity. Could do with a few more years maturation for optimum drinking but very delicious presently. With 90 minutes air time, astringency makes its presence felt.

March 20, 2022 - Burgundy color but with only a little bouquet and no flavor, with the wine left to its tannins. This has been my experience with Red Burgundy, truly a wine for the faithful and the believer. But I will quote the gospel of Mark: "Faith without works is dead."

4/1/2008 (link)(Potel Nicolas Chambertin) Medium-plus colour. The first sniff is disappointing - high-toned and alcoholic - but it soon slips into an interesting and deep impression of dark cherry fruit. Good acidity and plenty of well covered tannin, good dimension too. The finish is a very long diminuendo
