Opened up well initially but then proceeded to show a lot of structure with air. Better on the 2nd night. Bricking color and a nice nose of pine needles and dark berries. Pretty masculine wine showing plum, blackberry, earl gray and some licorice on the palate. Acidity sticks out a touch and the tannins are pretty grippy. Reminds me a little of a barbaresco. Not my favorite expression of Chambolle, but a pretty solid wine none-the-less.
