Eight years since my last bottle, and down to my last few after working through a case over the years. This has always been an over performer from a weaker year, but this bottle was a bit underwhelming. Elegant, fully mature red burg, but on the rustic side without much fruit left. Better than the ‘81 BM we had alongside it, but way behind the stellar ‘90 BM and excellent ‘95 Charmes have had over the past few weeks.

a pleasure to get to try this. somewhat cloudy. prominent soy/umami notes with still somefruit. I think it would make a good meat paring. drink up if you have.

Very good, and a pleasant surprise. Doesn't show any of the negative vintage characteristics. Rather spicy, and I would have guessed vosne over chambolle. Certainly not one to further age, but still some life left.

Needs a bit of air time to open up, but a very good '83.
