*Outstanding* This is also notably ripe with its pretty array of cassis, plum and violet aromas. There is a lovely texture to the elegant mineral-inflected and precise middle weight flavors that are shaped by relatively fine-grained tannins on the balanced and solidly persistent finish. This saline-infused effort is very Chambolle in style.

Light orange-pink. The incisive, mineral-laced nose evokes fresh strawberries, tangerines and flowers. Vibrant red fruit and orange pith flavors unfold slowly on lithe and nervy palate. In a distinctly elegant, understated style, with no excess fat and a firm closing bite. I find this to be as graceful and precise as numerous pink Champagnes that sell for much more.
