Not much to add to my previous tasting notes. Immediately attractive straight from the cellar and from the bottle. Classic Chambolle, lifted aromas of red berries on the nose, with a light touch of oak spice; characteristic minerality on the palate, elegant weight, fresh and lively, percaline tannins; good to very good persistence. Still its plateau of maturity. Drink or hold (but not too long). A lovely wine.

Clear ruby core. Nice black cherry aromas in addition to a prominent smell of new oak. Fuller, weightier, and less detailed than my preference is for Chambolle. The wood is really astringent and green to start but does ease up with air. Modern, facile, and not terribly interesting, but the fruit will last a good long while for what that’s worth.

A private lunch with family and friends (at home): Still going strong, a fragrant and feminine Chambolle with particularly well-managed tannins, which underlines that sensitive, modern winemaking does not have to limit the lifespan of a wine.

Quite a big wine, speaks more of the vintage than the appellation; smooth, creamy, rich, roasted, concentrated fruit here, a joy to drink - easily. #Kandestederne

(Patrice Rion Chambolle-Musigny) Light red color; big, floral, caramel and black cherry nose; soft, ripe, cherry and cream palate, low in acidity, not an ager; short-medium finish

A Tasting of Chambolle-Musigny Village Wines from the 2005 Vintage (San Francisco): Light red. Strong char at first, then increasingly fragrant over time. Delicious, relatively open earthy red fruit followed by slightly grainy tannin. Delicate, long, very Chambolle.
