Strong reduction - sulfur note that eventually blew off. Whole-cluster spice scent. Some hibiscus note. Slightly crunchy red cherry cranberry fruit - vibrant and satisfying weight. Saline and savory midpalate. Earthy finish with lavender-sage and spice note.
Medium minus body. Medium plus acidity. Soft tannin, chalky texture.
The lighter body and more red-fruited Chambolle than other vintages. A big contrast to the last two vintages especially.
The fruit has some depth/weight. There is a nice sense of transparency here. I recognize seeds of complexity in savoriness and whole cluster spiciness. I would like to see how this one develops.

high tones acid, fruit bomb, long tart finish, missing the stuffing in a real big way.
