  Popped and poured. This is a translucent ruby wine. On the nose, I get cherries (no surprise there), autumn leaves, wet soil, spice, and rosehips. In the mouth, this is still wound pretty tight; today it shows some structured cranberry aspects. The finish is poised, with crisp and sappy aspects bringing things home. Overall, this is a wine with evident potential – it was enjoyable today, but I think the best is yet to come (I suppose that’s not a huge surprise for a 2005 Burg GC). 92 points.

  Very classic burgundy nose, quite intense with cherries and some oak. Tannins are integrated nicely and I think the wine is in great balance and is very enjoyable today.

  Popped into decanter and poured into glass with no time to breathe.
  Drinking well now, open fruits with a burgundy elegance.
  Nice but not what I'd call excellent

  Another Saturday at Chevalier...Mostly Blind (Chicago, IL): Tasted double blind. Black cherry with lots of elegant tannins, softening nicely. Good density with good balance. Upside from here, but enjoyable now.

  Earthy, dark fruit, intense aroma. Rich, dusty and a bit oak. This wine has a good potential and quite backward, it can't open up the whole night and I think it will require some more paitent perhaps revisit 5 years later.
