Experience for me to date is that chambolle is a red fruited and more feminine style of wine, ethereal. So my beef with this CC chambolle is not that it’s poorly made, it’s just not what I was expecting. On the darker berry side, very ripe, medium bodied and a good mouthful of tannin. Well balanced and I can see why some rate this highly (wife loved it), but I’m not sure this producer is for me.

An open, floral garden aroma, with red fruits like raspberry and strawberry. Mid weight palate, with elegance and intensity. There's an earthy feel, with a smooth gravel or mineral appeal. A slightly firm, high toned, long finish.

Still carries some red fruits and savoury notes and supported with some fine, silky tannins. Light to medium bodied. Easy to like.

Exquisite. Will be outstanding for a few more years too. Super smooth, beautifully rounded. Classic.

Just as previous. Red fruits wrapped in floral aromas. Nice intensity with some tension from the tannins. Lovely.

Lovely again. Floral, savoury, elegant. Red fruit spectrum. Mild tannins to finish. Excellent day 1, and held up beautifully on day 2.
