Bright notes of cherry and fallen leaves fill the glass, balanced and fine, high toned with earthy flavors, the red and blue berry nuances carry across the palate, soft textures, long finish, delicious with filet mignon, in a perfect drinking spot now

Paul D’s note from 5/16 still rings true with some added beautiful secondary notes, spice and evolving autumnal character. Will lay off my only other bottle to allow more of those qualities to emerge. 93+

Really good surprise, 04 is not my favourite year for Burgundy. Nose quite muted at first, earthy. Medium body, still great fruit. Very Pinot Noir, very Chambertin. Super silky tannins. Loved it. ****

This is already turning the corner and appearing to enter its mature phase. Very nice indeed. Light tannins, well integrated, smooth, delicate and feminine. I think that in 2-3 years this will be really singing.
92 today but I think 93 with time. (Drank with the wife for her birthday with Allen, Gus and the wives)
Drink 2020-2030

Gevrey-Chambertin Dinner (Nicolas Restaurant, Teck Lim Street, Singapore): A lovely way to end the evening - this was such an enjoyable wine; decanted for 1.5 hours before pouring, it was firing on all cylinders as well. It had a ringingly clear bouquet, with such clear aromas of cherries and strawberries with barely a tinge of 2004's greenness about them. The palate was soft and melting, with a lovely open feel about it, with velvet tannins and soft acids already perfectly integrated into a lovely mouthful of fleshy cherry and berry flavours, all drifting away with a little kiss of spice. Wow - this was delicious, and drinking wonderfully right now.

(Geantet-Pansiot Charmes-Chambertin) Medium-plus cherry red colour. A high toned and wide nose that mixes red and blue-skinned fruits. A wonderfully effusive wine with excellent acidity and super depth. There’s a real extra dimension of fruit on the mid-palate before going into a discrete but long finish. The tannins are completely buried by the fruit. A few of the previous wines are longer but this wine is a compelling ‘complete package’.
