  A bit closed and surly. Try again in a few years

  PNP. Color dark garnet with crimson edges. nose super tight, and palate even tighter. I passed this thru a vinturi twice to get it to open up, and it remained totally locked down, with only the scorching acid/tannin structure on display. left half of it (yes I was apparently feeling masochistic last night) open on the counter to monitor evolution, but after one day not promising. will see how it goes, but for now must reserve judgment because I am thinking this is in a dumb phase.
  day three and this is still hard as nails. open on counter - hoping for the best.
  After multiple days this never opened up.....dunno what to say except I am afraid to buy any more - even at a discount

  Fruity mixed with an earthy tone. A bit tart and drying tannins. Good balance. CdB makes a very nice village wine. The fruit is not typical 2009 warm but much more cool and therefore better in my opinion. It can certainly be drunk with pleasure and is approachable but the tannins can smoothen out a bit.

  Hm, I'd like to say my experience of this wine was similar to that of Chambolle (see below), but surprisingly - given the appellation and vintage - it was closer to Chef de Cave's. Greenness predominates on the nose and palate. Some Pinot fruit on the nose but it's quite indistinct and surrounded by greenness. Palate is acidic and a bit astringent; not thin though, in fact it's juicy and quite firm and medium-bodied, with grainy tannins, but otherwise it's still green and hard to tell it's a 2009. What's going on with this? Caught it at a strange moment, perhaps, or it's bottle variation.
