September 24, 2023 - Ready to drink. Needs 30 min of air. Somewhat complex notes of sous bois, tart berries and spice. At the 1 hour mark, it drinks very well. Glad I held these and the Narbontons.

August 2, 2023 - 2/3, vg cork.
Pale/medium garnet core, pale garnet rim. Quite dark-fruited - bilberry, plum, touch of blackberry even, quite ripe with some soil and mulchy notes. Medium bodied, bilberry and plum fruit, soil, slightly chalky tannins but plenty of fruit also, has vibrancy with fresh acids, then a medium/good length finish. Drinking well but no hurry. -

April 1, 2022 - A joyous nose of expressive red fruits which unfortunately closed down after 30 mins or so. Certainly on the savoury side with plenty of grip and notes of soy, plum and leather. I suspect this would have been best enjoyed before 2010 or after 2030.

January 16, 2022 - Glassware: Grassl Cru
Prep: Pop n’ pour, stood upright for a week in the cellar beforehand.
Perfumed, mature nose of dried blackberry, black cherry, plum, sous bois, and mushrooms. Non-descript black fruit on the palate, slightly faded. Fully resolved tannins, bright acidity, and spicy, earthy minerality that lingers over a long finish. At peak now, probably has a handful of years at its current plateau but if you're wanting the fruit I wouldn’t hold any longer. -

June 14, 2019 - 1/3, very good cork.
Medium garnet core, pale garnet rim. Nose is quite developed - showing plenty of soil, some mushroom and underlying bilberry and plum fruit. Medium bodied, soil, liquorice, blue/purple fruits, fine but still quite firm tannins, fresh acidity, good length slightly drying finish. Decent.

10/6/2008 (link)(LAVIERES Savigny 1er Camus-Bruchon) 2005 Burgundy Dear Friends, This set of 2005 red Burgundy is flat-out great - period. You can look up the Burghound reviews of the 2006's to get an idea (I don't believe he reviewed the 2005s) or the glowing praise from Claude Kolm, Gilman or others on the 2005 portfolio but all that really matters is what's in the bottle and that puts Camus-Bruchon among the very best of all the 2005's for the tarrif. In a nutshell, wine for wine, this may be the most successful portfolio in 2005 under $50 for every wine - it's that good. Most of the wines are from very old vines - they are pure, lovely and deftly expressive of their place with beautiful backbones and a clear message of minerality and site - they are neither too much nor too little - they jump from their vessel with aromatics and flavors that remind us of why 2005 was so magical in the Cote d'Or. With quality this good comes demand from many nooks of the world and (as a result) this allocation is miniscule - please limit requests to 3/each. This parcel has outstanding provenance - as direct from the source as I could muster: 2005 Camus-Bruchon Savigny-Les-Beaune "Les Pimentiers" Vielles Vignes 80-90 year old vines on clay and chalk - very fine and regal style with perfumed, spice-laden aromatics. Excellent. 2005 Camus-Bruchon Savigny-Les-Beaune "Aux Grands Liards" Vielles Vignes 90-100 year old vines grown in sand on top of bedrock. The opposite of the Pimentiers - muscular and strapping with smoke and earth tones wrapped around a tornado an an inner core - could age for 20 years. 2005 Camus-Bruchon Savigny-Les-Beaune "Les Lavieres" 1er Opposites attract once again - from the north of the Bois de Noel, this is elegance personified... 2005 Camus-Bruchon Savigny-Les-Beaune "Narbontons" 1er ...and from the south of Mont Battois, this is sheer force of will. Thank you, Jon Rimmerman Garagiste Seattle, WA Burg6310 Burg6320 Burg6330 Burg6340
