Last bottle brought out on our wine industry dinner. First hour it was super tight like it hadn’t seen any air ever. Took an hour to unfurl and the nose evolved over time. Lovely and it’s all still there. Will get better.

Solid village wine. Took about an hour to come into its own, but got continuously fresher. Red fruit with a hint of orange peel, floral, a bit of spice. Good balance and solid depth for the level. Finish feels a little short, but otherwise solid.

Bottle had a musky brett top note that did blow off after decanting and some air. After that some dark red and black fruits with some wood toast. Palate was more black cherry and menthol with medium acidity and medium plus finish. Will let these sleep a while before revisiting, at least 1-2yrs.

Nice pinot but a bit closed, some reduction/a little rubber note with mostly red berry fruit. Champagne Lunner at Newport Seafood.

Le millésime 2016 en Chambolle-Musigny (appellation communale ou "villages") (au Quartier Général): Un beau vin frais, élégant et typé, très classique. Il a de la finesse mais un peu moins de profondeur que les meilleurs du groupe. 89-90 pts
