"Good full red. Pure, medicinal aromas of red cherry, pepper and minerals. Dense and penetrating, with sappy flavors of raspberry, red cherry, menthol and crushed stone. This has superb tannic structure and thrust. A great mineral expression of Chambolle that Barthod says is 'for the soil heads.' Reminded me of a topnotch Bonnes-Mares . . . . Ghislaine Barthod, who was embarking on yet another cellar expansion in November, brought in her fruit in 2003 with grape sugars between 13% and 14%, and acidified her musts 'just to protect against accidents in the fermenter.' Like a number of her colleagues in Burgundy, Barthod says the wines started slowly but are now showing more pinot fruit. She planned to bottle in March, at her regular time. 'We have a lot of water in the rocks of Chambolle-Musigny, and the roots of our vines have always gone deep,' Barthod told me. 'I remember my father saying that in the drought year of '76, the foliage in Chambolle remained healthier because the vines here were less stressed.'"
