  Chevalier Induction Dinner - Like so many 2005s, this was a mistake to open. I would give it 10 years and likely more. This is a big wine with a ton of structure. The tannin is gripping and there is so much density in the fruit. Put the rest to bed for a decade.

  Quick decant for 30 minutes.
  Lovely fresh nose of cherries, spices and minerals. Velvet taste with a very long finish. Classic Chambertin. Lovely.

  Both burg hound and Tanzer rate this 95-96 , but I can’t get close to that.

  Initially completely closed down. Does not yield an inch during the first hour of airation and decanting. Really starting to regret buying this bottle. It is obvious to me that the higher tiers in ‘05 are still just infants. An hour in and the nose starts to show some hints of dark, dark cherries and freshly ground coffee. The palate is equally unyielding and has some concentrated fruit but little else. The wine opens up more and more during 2 hours, and at the end there are cloudberries, cherries, coffee and leather straps showing on the nose. The palate has prominent tannins, dark heavy fruit, high concentration, but still would have benefitted greatly from more air. Sadly at this point, the bottle was empty.
  
  Way too early to open this wine. Try opening it from 2028 and onwards. Perhaps it might come around until then. The potential in this wine is huge.
  
  50+5+12+15+9 (91p)

  The nose initially showed what I call varnish/nail polish (acetobacter is what we think the technical term is) . It blew off, but took a while. This wine got better with air and time, and showed its pedigree.
