  Decanted 1 h, followed 6 h
  
  This is excellent, the freshness is striking, especially considering the vintage, truly an achievement. Elegant nose of raspberry, juicy cranberry, clove and perhaps a hint of rose stems.
  
  Great mouthfeel, really loving the completeness of this wine, feels very harmonious and true to Chambolle. Through the long finish, that slight 18 bitterness sneaks in, but in no way intrusive.

  This wine was as structured of an 18 as I have ever had. Chewy and slightly tough, somewhat austere, and closed. Dark pitched, but not nearly as monolithic as I expected. Nor as silky or elegant as one would expect the appellation. Needs time.

  Initially was rather structured and tannic and a bit closed. After a few hours was showing a nice core of black cherry fruit on the nose and palate. Fruit still behind a rather firm wall of tannins. Lengthy finish. Best to hold.
