Late dinner in Paris. Smooth and delicious. — 2 years ago
2005. So freaking smooth. Great balance. Little dark fruit tartness toward back. Wish had a touch more young fruit on the front. But so good. — 4 years ago
A lot going on the nose. Red fruit, black fruit, meat, leather. Would be a good wintertime wine. Too bad they’re sold out at Kermit Lynch. Devin gave it 💯 — 5 years ago
Strawberry rhubarb., distant herb garden, bramble, & fine toothed tannins. Beautiful tension & texture. Drinking nicely now- the dinner guest who brought it said previous bottles of same vintage were closed. Paired with sautéed duck breast in 5 Chinese Spices, plus roast beets with garlic dill yogurt sauce. Deliciousness in multiple dimensions. — 8 months ago

Classic chambolle. Elegance is the word! Complex and clean nose with red currant, cherry, roses and primordial earthiness. On the palate, seductive elegance with a silky texture and feather like mouthfeel and outstanding linearity. It slowly peels away the complexity with layers of red fruits, roses and the classic limestone undertones. Borniques is biodynamically farmed with winemaking synched with lunar cycles on a small parcel of 1.4 ha situated right above the famous ‘Les Amoureuses’ with vines planted almost on the rock. It explains the very linear structure. The tannins, acidity and alcohol were in brilliant harmony with a finish where the dance continues for well over 2 mins. I loved this and it reminded me why Chambolle-Musigny is one of my absolute favorite villages in Burgundy. — 4 years ago
