Wine meet – Chambertin @ Lars: Mature nose with notes of sous bois and mushrooms. Mature red-fruits. Classy and great balance. My last bottle and have had better bottles of it so it might be fading slowly from here.

Bottle breathe for 2 hours, and double decant before serving. Earthy note with flowers and cherry. Some smoke and wood on the palate. Maybe it's peaked but still offer nice drinking experience.

(Jadot Louis Gevrey-Chambertin Clos St.Jacques) Medium, medium-plus colour - still holding onto cherry-red - but only just. The nose starts with considerable width but not much depth, there's an undertow of sweet creamy earth but little else. Slowly the nose begins to blossom with tight red fruit, cranberry and red cherry, eventually redcurrant too. In the mouth this is superbly intense and after you swallow; it's very much like the sides of your mouth are leaking as the finish goes on and on. The overall effect is of a taught and wirey wine with tannins that are quite smooth with faint astringency and just a trace of bitterness. With time the bitterness is lost yet its tightly wound transparent nature remains true - no change.

Needed 1+ hour of decanting. Tight at first then relaxed to show a Woody mushroomy nose and palate. Very nice

Decanted for ~90 minutes and it needed it. Shrill and closed initially. Gained flesh, meatiness and layers over the evening. Classic CSJ.
