Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, April 16, 2013 - An interesting wine; not to say this wine is very complex..just interesting. Straight-forward fruit profile for the vintage: Musty/dried cherries and cranberry. The nose has hints of flint over wet stone with a background pepper. Old cigar box then intermixes with cedar notes and game.

Quite bright, the nose and palate seem to be in full agreement, but with the level of acidity being quite high, this chambolle-musigny seems quite 'smudgy.'

Although it is still young, I do not know if the muscular tannin in this wine will fully integrate before it reaches its plateau of maturity - we will have to wait and see. If it does, the rating could climb up a few points.

I am also unsure that I particularly like the faint brownish hue, and given the whiff of tca that I get every now and then from almost every bottle I have tasted leads me to believe that this domaine could be plagued by a tca problem...

All 4 tasting notes are somewhat similar, with scores ranging from 86-90 over the past 3 months.
