A very good Villages wine that relies more on its top notch concentration and richness vs the pure expression of Chambolle terroir. But that's 2003. Still amazingly fresh.

Not refined, still Chambolle; the power of '03 is very recognizable, but the power is in balance, round, ripe, a bit jammy. Overall, perfect with soft cheeses. Will stay in this condition for some years.

2003 does not offer super elegance, but this wine gives you a full body and far enough style to be a real chambolle. Lovely, fresh (good acidity), long aftertaste; supported the pigeon breast perfectly.

Some Wine Tasted at the Zachys La Paulée Auction; 3/10/2022-3/11/2022 (Le Bernardin Prive - New York NY): Small pour, brief note. Bright red fruit, shockingly fresh, still showing bright textures. Christophe was one of Burgundy's top performers in this challenging vintage.

See my previous note. Even after two days in the fridge the the last glass was still in balance.
