This wine is way not ready. Very rebellious. The nose is nice, a bit of leather and mushroom, yet the taste is sharp red fruit, oak, too vibrant, even after a couple hours of bottle breathing. Chambolle wines should be calmer. I have a full case of it and I won't open another bottle at least in a year time, not that I think it will be ready, but I think once it's ready this wine would be really something.

PnP & slow ox 90 mins prior to dinner in Riedel Burgs. Serving temp around 60. Semi translucent bright ruby red. Roses, underbrush & berries on the nose. Palate is mostly elegant w/a slightly less attractive bitter note on the finish. Red fruit, spice, underbrush & minerality on a slightly svelte frame for a '15. Better on night 2. 13% alc. One left that I'll plan to open 2026-2030.
