Out of magnum. Reasonably approachable for such a young Chambertin in large format. I think the vintage and producer help in that regard. The nose is all black cherry with some meat and spice. Rich, dense and concentrated palate that is tasty if a little obvious today. But no roasted or over-ripe fruit. Stuffed and should improve with time.

Dinner at Booth One (Chicago, IL): From magnum (of course). This was a very nice showing of the vintage, as there was no sense of roastedness or overripeness at all. To be sure, this is a burly wine, and the fruit shows quite forward alongside all the iron and earth in this wine. A fairly powerful wine on the midpalate, this diminishes a little on the back end.

WIMPS Burgundy 27th Oct 23 (La Trompette): This wine seems so complete. Lovely black fruit, spicy edge and seamless finish. Top burgundy
