Not bad for an off year, although finish is clipped. Animale, soil tones, game bird. Acidity and tannins in check. No rush to consume. #gevreychambertin #gevrey #faiveley — 10 years ago
Label says Chambertin Clos de Beze "Viellies Vignes" 2009. Actually, this was the experimentation barrel of Chambertin Clos de Beze "Les Ouvrees Rodin". Only 1 barrel(Taransaud) was produced in 2009 and was not released, or at least not in the USA. The first commercial release of "Les Ouvrees Rodin" was 2010. — 8 years ago
Corked. Below the foul smell you could tell there was the power of #chambertinclosdebeze #chambertin #faiveley #burgundy — 9 years ago

Old magic. Definitely a little funk but so pretty and alive. #faiveley #latricieres #chambertin — 10 years ago

2002 Burgundy! My favorite vintage if I had to pick one.

All that I adore in a great Red #Burgundy #pinotnoir
Deep Burgundy red in color, the nose is elegantly dense, with a sous bois, savory braised beef, wet earth, bing cherries, all pulsating with energy and life, with just a hint of tertiary. The palate shows it's one flaw, the chewy and slightly gritty tannin. Otherwise the acidity and flavors are on point, the length and energy are classic+.
