  Puissant pour un Chambolle, a l’ancienne! Bel équilibre avec une fraîcheur éclatante si on laisse le vin s’ouvrir (non carafé dans mon cas)

  1er Cru bottling. Decanted for an hour. Very smooth, with a nose of mushrooms, forest floor. On the palate, same, dark fruit with a touch of licorice! Kept open for about 2 hours and it was consistent throughout. Still has at least 5 more years of life.

  Still muscular and stubborn. Much of the fruit qualities (if there were any) has disappeared and only brooding dark fruit qualities with herbs and spices remained. This is a preferential call. Many loved the wine.

  Cellar Reduction, The Fun Way (Santa Ynez Valley): A bit more subdued to my taste than others found this wine. Still quite fresh, with impressive depth of flavors (mainly cherries), but faded on the mid-palate, and I found the acidity a bit distracting.

  This is masterly in its class. So fine, so balanced, not a bit tired. Simply delicious. Wish I had got more. Had luck at an auction to get this at 30 €, you have to pay more than 100 recently. It's very sad to see the prices of burgundys go through the roof and locking out more and more "normal" winelovers without endless money at hand. A few weeks ago I wanted to buy some bottles from an importer here in Germany. I had ordered from an internet formula dated from the end of december. Coolely I was informed, that I should pay now (4 weeks later) not 75, but 125 for one of the bottles and 85 now for another, not 56 as in the december formula. So I had to say no and cancelled the whole order. I know that the vintners have to live from something, that often they have very little production, but in some instances I have the impression that things are out of control.
