"Heavy reduction makes the nose almost impossible to accurately read but it's clear that beneath all the reductive funk lies notably ripe fruit. The flavors however are classic Chambolle with both generosity and serious dry extract conferring a textured and dense character to the otherwise concentrated but fine flavors underpinned by firm tannins that will require the better part of a decade to fully resolve. Terrific quality here."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Produces the most delicate and perfumed reds of the Cote de Nuits, prized for floral elegance and silky texture.
2005 in Burgundy is a legendary vintage from a near-ideal, dry growing season; both reds and whites are concentrated, structured and superbly balanced, with dense tannins and exceptional long-term aging potential.
