The succulent and sleek middleweight flavors are delicious

This is a class act

An overtly floral suffused nose displays notes of pear compote

Very pale crimson with some blue

Albert Bichot, Chambolle Musigny Chabiots other_regions_italy orange zest and tobacco alongsideA brooding and inexpressive nose mixes notes of red pinot fruit with a lovely array of spice and floral elements, in particular violets. There is a wonderfully refined mouth feel to the seductively textured medium bodied flavors that are finer but less obviously mineral inflected than the Sentiers on the impressively persistent finish. This is very Chambollesque in style and should drink well young as well as reward 8 to 10 years of cellaring. (90 93)
