    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note
    Ghislaine Barthod, Chambolle Musigny, Les Veroilles, 1er Cru, 2005

    Spicy aromatics precede a beautiful, close-knit high-toned palate, lovely elegant juicy ripe fruits and cool mineral tones, flavours of cherry, raspberry and cherry stone, this shows a Bonnes Mares-like muscle and depth.

    ABV:
    13.5%
    91-94/100
    Stephen Tanzer, Vinous
    Bright, dark red. Sweet, ripe aromas of black raspberry, menthol and mint are given punch by a pungent mineral quality. A step up in sweetness from the foregoing wines, offering excellent density and sappiness without any hardness. Really spreads out on the back end to saturate the palate with raspberry, spice and savory mineral flavors. The substantial dusty tannins will require patience. These vines are situated in a cuvette, which could have been expected to trap the frigid air on the morning of April 27, but the crop here was only off by about 35%.
