(CdV) Pas très amusant ce Chambolle… nez mutique, bouche fine mais flat, il n’offrait aucun émoi à nos palais impatients ! Vraiment déçu (les notes CT donnaient envie) malgré une tessiture sérieuse et élégante qui le portera loin. Quant a savoir s’il se bonifiera, j’ai du mal a me projeter (pas forcément mon style)

Medium-light garnet. Initially reserved, closed nose with earthy notes, red fruit in the background, sous bois, bakery. Opened up considerably after 3h slow oxed and showed the elegant fruit of the Charmes terroir. Enters the palate restrained at first, elegant body, good tension and acidity, fruit emerging after a while. Did much better after decanting. There is good, bright fruit material here but this needs cellaring till 2020.

Outstanding. Cherry, raspberry and menthol. Great structure, still young.

Amazing wine. This is tannic but so beautiful. Red fruited. Very long. Intense.
