The magnificent 2001 Chambertin offers jammy, plummy black fruit aromas in a medium to full-bodied, seamless personality. Candied blackberries, plums, cherries, cassis liqueur, and a compote of black raspberries are found in its deep, harmonious core of fruit. Unquestionably one of the finest red Burgundies produced in 2001, it boasts exceptional ripeness (the copious tannin is sweet and supple), huge concentration, elegance, immense power, and a gorgeously long, flavorful finish. Projected maturity: 2006-2016.
