Tasting Notes

Rich and suave, with cherry and black currant fruit swathed in an inviting layer of spicy oak. A little shy now, but another year or two should coax all the nuances out. The fine length shows this wine's ultimate potential. Best from 2019 through 2033. –BS

Score: 94

Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator Maturity: 2019-2033 30 April 2017

Bright medium red. Raspberry, rose petal and sexy earthy perfume on the nose. Fleshy and open-knit but with its enticing red fruit, spice and wild herb flavors given added vibrancy and grip by a pungent pomegranate element. This classic, juicy Chambolle wine finishes with a suave dusting of tannins and exhilarating tart red berry lift. A year ago from barrel this wine came across as quite oaky but it has tightened up considerably, with its soil character now dominating.

Score: 91

Stephen Tanzer, Vinous.com Maturity: 2021-2029 01 March 2017

A discreet touch of wood sets off the spicy red and black currant aromas that lead to bigger, richer and more muscular flavors that manage to retain a good sense of detail on the lingering and well-balanced finale. Despite the solid size and weight this remains very Chambolle in style.

Score: 89 - 91
