Delightful, delicious, seamless. This is the kind of Burgundy one could happily drain a magnum in a flash, alas we only had a 750 and it went down quickly.

This was unexpected, opened at abt 5pm for dinner. And it took a little more time in the glass but I would say this is drinking at its best now but with many more years to come. Lots of secondary flavours, tea leaves, Sandlewood but giving so much delicate chambolle pleasure right now as well. It was balanced and showing beautifully and paired nicely with light sausage and meats. The only reason I didn’t score this more highly was the concentration/density could have been better.

Surprisingly youthful, with intense dark cherry, and developing earthy character, but still needs more time , as tannins quite firm and significant. Will get much better with 5-6 more years . A real keeper!!

(Comte Vogue Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru) Orange rind, black cherries and clove spice on the nose. Rich and ripe with a long spicey finish. Not that tannic for a '98. Excellent potential.
