Tasted over 3 hrs, edition 2 (of 6) of 2014 Bertheau horizontal -nearly semi-translucent med dark red mild bricking -some Burg funk black cherry wet stone -med+ acidity, med- weight crunchy tart bright red fruit, med- tannins -a little lighter more elegant and redder-fruited than the Bourgogne but not more complex, a pretty Chambolle village in the zone now don't expect much improvement but no hurry either

Started off slightly herbal, faintly green but with nice wilted rose petal, my expectations were not high. After 90 minutes this was a stunning "sneak up on you" village wine, gaining a bit of cherry pit fruit as it knit together. In a great spot right now just gaining secondary character and with barely perceptible tannin.

I should really check my notes before trying another bottle (coravin again). I had completely forgotten doing exactly this one a couple of months ago and my tasting note would be identical! I’m going to open this bottle and leave it for a day and see what that does. The next day this has a curiously medicinal note to it. A curious wine.

Agree with Bartondude. This wine with some air is gorgeous. Excellent Villages Chambolle. Will likely improve from here.

Good fruit and lots of acid. Solid food wine.
