  April 27, 2022 - Kept under condition 1 (see my profile) since about 2016. No formal notes. Very nice wine, but at the end of its drinking window. At the first day 91-92.

  July 1, 2019 - The third bottle of four bottles of Chezeaux Boudots that crumbled before I got it out of the bottle. Brett on the nose and in the taste. Taste: Again nicely fresh red fruit and a lively acidity, with a nice depth. At the second day fresh red fruit, flowers and sweet herbs in the nose. The taste followed the nose, with even a little bit of garrigue, and it was well balanced. Very nice with food, even more on its own. To drink within three years, I guess. At the first day 89, at the second 91.

  January 3, 2017 - Wow before I sat down to write this note I checked my CT tastings and the last Burg I had was December of 2014 so I think my last few experiences where not that good so I decided to hold pulling the cork on the 20+ odd bottles I have in the cellar. Anyway I thought it was time to check on a 2005 again and was glad it was a positive experience. Decanted this for about 1/2 hour before dinner and it was light on its feet with a perfumed nose of red fruit and a nice crimson color. The palate matched our baked haddock and roasted veggies very well and it was a pleasure to drink. Burgundy remains an enigma to me given the multitude of producers, the extreme variability and unfortunately the pricing, which doesn't allow me much experimentation. However, when you stumble upon a good bottle it can be magical.

  May 20, 2016 - Only short notes. Nose: quite classy and balanced. Taste: nice, fresh red and black cherries, refined and quite classy. Still some fine but unresolved tannins. I will probably keep my last bottle a couple of years. With coq au vin a delicious wine. 91.

  January 18, 2016 - The cork was a bit black (fungus?) and crumbled when I tried to pull it out, so I had to push it in the bottle at last unfortunately. Taste: Juicy fruit, sous bois, a bit of laurel, solid acidity and still a bit tannic, at the second day also peppery. With quite a good body, this wine is rather square now, which seems to be characteristic for Nuits Saint Georges. At the first day I guessed, that this wine needed one or two more years in the cellar to come together, but at the second day it seemed mature. Real quality. First day 89+, second 91.
