  Un deuxième CDN 2003 en peu de jours et celui ci a convaincu bien davantage que le précédent.Robe évoluée,bouquet très floral (rose fanée,églantine) fruits noirs (cassis,sureau) d'intensité moyenne.Le palais est d'une très belle élégance,tanins fondus.Cette cuvée manque un peu de structure c'est quand même très souple.A point n'ira pas plus haut.Longueur normale pour un 1er cru de Chambolle.

  A lot of anticipation for me, as my love for Freddy Mugnier knows no bounds, and 03 CM Village showed great a couple years ago.
  
  This wine disappointed pretty severely. Muted on the nose, and outclassed by both 07 / 08 Barthod Fuees in aromaticity. Perhaps the extreme cost of the wine is biasing me a little, but there wasn’t too much going on.
  
  Palate was similarly muted and a little flabby. Kind of reminded me of the 14 consumed way too young a couple of years back. Just quiet. Mugnier structure and great length were both there, on the positive side.
  
  Perhaps it was just a bad day for the bottle. 87 / 100.

  Fuees Dinner (DJCV as host) (Brooklyn, NY): A wine of elegance and levity. Characteristically Mugnier in style and with all of the Chambolle-esque one could ask for. The solar vintage seems to have added to the ripeness of the red fruit here, but in no way was the wine hot / heavy / or overbearing. Totally balanced and delicious. A super well executed 2003.

  Needed about 30-40 minutes for the nose to open up and the palate to develop. Medium-light ruby with a slight coppery rim. Flat cola, candied cherries, crushed berries, black tea. Light bodied, medium- acidity that mostly sits on the tip of the tongue. Cherries, raspberry, pepper that disappears into a nearly void midpalate with a very gentle undulating tanin. Sadly anything interesting on the palate probably disappeared 4-5 years ago.

  Opal Restaurant, Santa Barbara- Burgundy/Arcadian Winery tasting. Tasted blind. Aromas of holiday spice, baked cranberry and licorice. A medley of anise, tea leaf, menthol and cherry on the palate- layered, delicate and pretty. Finely structured with a full finish of spice and medicinal herb.
