A little farmyardy on opening, but still some pleasure in this forgotten oldie from the cellar when it opened up… — 11 days ago

Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2005
20 years. Well top vintage and vineyard. What to do you think? Back then already 150$. At its peak! Ridiculously refined. Cardamom plum nose. Tannins fully resolved. My wife says mellow. I hate this term. Faint cherry, Touch crushed marble, hint lime, green tea, …looses fruit and interest after 3 hours. Drink within 60 min gone later ——-!!!!!! — a month ago

Slightly deeper ruby , slightly narrower pink , ruby rim . Deeper more concentrated riper , slightly more roasted , medicinal, mineral nose at first . Needs a bit of time to come together . Then darker , ripe cassis and red currant . Richer and riper on the palate , but still good balance , darker fruits , sweeter , touch of cassis , red currant and earthy mineral finish . This is quite a bit denser with reasonably good length , earthy mineral , dark cherry tinged finish. The riper deeper character comes across quite evidently , a bit marked by the vintage perhaps , very different from the other two. This does seem to come together in the glass with time ,it will get there eventually but needs more time . Better in 5 years and will drink well a further 10 or so . — 8 days ago
