Wednesday, February 15, 2017 - Slow-ox 30 minutes, tasted over 1 hr; from 375mL, bottle from secondary market
-dark red no bricking
-rich dark berry/cherry/plum, oak
-med/med- acidity, med weight, relatively simple ripe black cherry/berry without surmaturite some earthy mature elements starting to creep in, med tannins and noticeable oak on finish
-in a good drinking window (this bottle a little more advanced than another opened recently), rich for a Chambolle village wine, modern style a bit heavy-handed with the oak but not over-ripe and it retains good balance blessed from the vintage, in sum this is more representative of the producer and the vintage than it is of its terroir
