Chambolle-Musigny for Dummies: The village section located further west on the border between Flagey-Echezeaux and Chambolle-Musigny.
Aromas of thus, pine, savoury notes. Wine lacks the complexity of others, but given the price which is ½ of 1er Cru makes it a real vfm and hidden gem! Wine is at its peak, drink now.

Lot of sweetness in the nose, somehow still some sulfur left. Needs plenty og air, decanting two hours at least. Beautiful wine. Couldn't ask for more.

Egge vinklubb - stiftelsesmøte (Utenga): Pure aroma, strawberry and sweet spice like cinnamon. Elegant style. Some oak, but well integrated. Very long, great wine!

Opened this one late in the evening with friends, and was disappointed. 3 days later I found the last half of the bottle in the back room and decided to try it again.
Dark and good colour. Lots of fruit on the nose with heavy perfume, heat, fullness and some alcohol. Borderline reduction-aromas. Some synthetic fruits.
Palate is better. Concentration but some greenies on the aftertaste. A bit watery on the second sip.
After 30 minutes it shows less negative factors and more of the good stuff. Almost no greenness, alcohol or water, but more concentration.

Some delicate strawberry/raspberry scent, but a little insubstantial and abrasive on the palate. Too ambitious perhaps?
