(Roumier Georges Chambolle-Musigny) Medium-plus cherry-red, no fading. Bready and meaty notes mingle with the fruit - after a while it's almost like minestrone soup - quite bizarre. Perhaps a little sulfur was causing the problem, given time it's mainly creamy black cherry. The palate is much more like it, fresh black-shaded fruit and really good acidity. Silky with good concentration and medium, medium-plus length. Very tasty.
(Roumier Chambolle-Musigny) What a beautiful, pure, lacey wine this was. Why can't all village wines taste like this? Red fruits, perfect balance, soft texture and great concentration all on a medium-bodied frame. A pleasure to drink. Not too complex but so well made. A joy.
