Very nice, muted at first but opened up wonderfully. Quite classic. Buy

Stern upon opening. Dark and tannic. Can hardly believe this is 22 years old. Nice notes of sandalwood started showing after some time. Day two: still very intense and structured. Not much fruit showing, yet no signs of age.

Giving nose showed red berries, sous bois, floral notes. Sweet mature fruit on the palate with medium tannins, acidity in check. Pleasant drinking 83. #jeanchauvenet #nuitsstgeorges #lesvaucrains #burgundywine #redburgundy

This 07 Chauvenet Vaucrains stole the show today. THIS is how Burgundy should taste. Deep, earthy, perfect tannins, balanced acid. Happy place.

Opened for 2hrs. A little tight at first but the swirling glass opened it up to perfection. Soft round fruit. So pretty.
