Sunday, October 18, 2009 - Knightsbridge's Burgundy Tasting (Knightsbridge, Northbrook IL): nose: extremely well balanced and very deep nose that is just filled with layered tones of black pepper, bacon fat, black cherries, smoke, bits of florals and great underlying spice tones. It doesn't necessarily scream, but instead works out a brawny richness that also has a beguiling side to it

taste: Great melded tones of smoked meats, black pepper, bacon fat, black cherries, and bits of floral tones on the palate with a great medium/full feel and good tannins and medium acidity. Well layered and very classy at the same time

overall: just a baby, but shows off what could turn into a stupendous wine. It already is an amazing wine, but is just so young at the same time and needs to really let itself emerge. A real breath taking young chave that is great now and should be great in 25 years
