On a night of some truly magnificent wines. Last wine and served after Mazis, Roty (99) and Serafin Charmes (96) both 1978. I think this would have made a greater impression on another night, but it was still a very good wine. Some at the table mentioned that 1990 Burgundy is on a downward slope, but this, imho, is not. Lovely Chambolle expression and the Amoureses creamy, lush, seductive quality with very good length. I would love to have this again in the future!

La Paulee rejects do lunch... (S.F.): Gorgeous silky feel to this...aged to perfection...dusty orange spice, leather, rose stem, plum liqueur....little cloudy and rustic, but plenty of charm. Loved this!

Top quality Amoureuses. Rich Chambolliness, finesse, finish. I'm reminded of how the Japanese replicated scotch. Someone who can replicate Chambolle in say a vineyard in Oregon will get rich real fast.

Absolutely epic! This is everything I want in red Burgundy. Huge nose. Great silky texture on the palate. Still very fresh. So freakin good.
