Needed a thorough decanting. Sweet and plush on the approach. Dark herbs and austere tannins on the finish. Overall a long progression.

If you wait... with proper storage this will drink well long enough for you to recall fondly burgundy before global warming withered her vines. Great depth for this vineyard ...toasted baguette laced with baking spice.

Chandon de Briailles has a way of making its more "powerful" wines in "softer" years. This was an 04. Definitely in line with that thread.

2001 - I preferred this over the 1999 last night. Transparent, complex, delicious. Everything I want in burgundy.

1999 - so much vigor, youth, yumminess.

Light for a grand Cru but very pretty and a point.

Really classic Corton. Deep, dark fruits and solid structure. Tasty.
