2005 Ghislaine Barthod Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru 'Aux Beaux Bruns'
SKU: B334
Regular price $364.95"The 2009 Beaux Bruns is a stunning wine in the making and clearly one of the best Chambolle premier crus that I tasted on this trip. The bouquet is deep, pure and really vibrant, as it soars from the glass in a sappy mélange of plums, black cherries, raw cocoa, woodsmoke, intense violets and a stunningly complex base of soil. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, pure and very soil-driven, with the great core of fruit wrapped in beautiful terroir. The finish is very, very long, with ripe tannins, excellent focus and grip and beautiful, nascent complexity on the backend. A beautiful bottle of wine that will richly deserve six or seven years of bottle age before broaching, just to let it really cut loose on the nose and palate. (Drink between 2016-2040), (JG, 93 points)."
