  See my note from June 2023, but this is really a fleshy and meaty wine that needs more time or a serious decant.
  
  Not sure if it's just not my style of red, as I tend to enjoy more light-footed and thinner ones, but it just gets too much for me after a while.
  
  Scoring it one lower than last time - not sure if it's the specific night having had an insane 2001 Clos des Goisses before or the food pairing...

  This is much like the other Chambolle 1er 2017 I had from Sigaut about a year ago. TLDR: You need to give them more time or a some hours of decanting. But I think you will be rewarded.
  
  A quite fleshy and meaty wine with a focus on more dark fruits and berries. Blackberry, chokeberry, dark cherry, ripe raspberry, a touch of something like plum and a bit of blackcurrant. It has a somewhat sweetness to it. There's a good acidity to hold it and complexity in there from forest floor, oak, mushroom, chocolate and some pepper. It's tight at first and the tannins does grip firmly in the gums. Got better and better in the Zalto glass.
  
  At the moment it's not textbook Chambolle, but I urge people to give it more time and see what this can evolve into...

  Good weight and texture, but the flavor is an unappetizing combination of wood and alcohol. Maybe this needs a decade, but right now not very enjoyable.

  A purple and red-black fruited core, beautifully pulsating with black cherry, ripe plum, and muddled black raspberry flavors all swirling around periphery notes of underbrush, stems, and rock. Succulence and liveliness coexist beautifully in this young but gorgeously accessible Chambolle. Finishes slightly chewy, but then wraps up with a taut grip that harnesses the undulating, deep fruit.
  
  A fantastic bottle of Pinot that certainly veers into the purple fruit arena. Those who are looking for higher register cranberry types of Pinots need not apply. For me, I dig it! 94-95+ points.
