"The 2005 Chambolle-Musigny smells of ripe red raspberry with high-toned touches of black tea, lemon zest, iris, and horseradish. Bright, bracing and treble on the palate, it nevertheless doesn’t lack for primary sweetness of fruit and finishes long and bright, with subtly meaty, chalky undertones. This over-achieving village wine nicely combines virtues of high- and low-elevation sites."

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.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
