Once again mild reduction knocks down the underlying fruit though it does appear to be obviously ripe. The juicy and succulent flavors are solidly concentrated, indeed this is a big Chambolle villages as the bitter cherry-inflected finish even displays a bit of rusticity and somewhat less minerality than this cuvée usually does. To be sure, this is delicious but I wouldn't describe it as a typical Chambolle. 2022+. By Allen Meadows @ Burghound, Apr 2017.
