All respect to the pros, but here is a read from the cheap seats: Ripe black cherry and berry fruits. Touch of savory/salty/soy. Med tannic grip and med acid. 13.5% Alc.
All about that fresh berry fruit at this early stage, but the tannin/acid balance suggests a steady winemaker’s hand and good things for future development. It has that pleasure factor I look for in Chambolle: A berry in my glass, plus alcohol and time, this whets the appetite for Amiot’s 1ers.
90-92 range says I, and to second the inestimable Burgundy Al “Lots here. An excellent village wine”.

Friday Burgundy Cellar Visits - Paul Pernot and Amiot-Servelle (Cote d'Or): Tasting at the domaine. Complex array of red fruit aromas and flavors. Bright and balanced start, firmer in the middle. Very good depth for its level. Lots here. An excellent Village wine. 20% whole cluster, 15-20% new oak. From 7 plots across Chambolle.

Quatuor en Harmonie (Morey-St-Denis, Chambolle-Musigny, Nuits-St-Georges) - Les Grands Jours de Bourgogne (Château de Gilly-lès-Cîteaux): Walk around tasting. Less density vs the 2018, but more balance, richness, and certainly more accessible fun.
