WTN: 2005 Domaine Robert Chevillon Bourgogne

by David M. Bueker » Fri Oct 26, 2007 7:16 am

2005 Domaine Robert Chevillon Bourgogne - France, Burgundy, Bourgogne (10/25/2007)
Dark red color. Forward aromatics of cherry and strawberry fruit and earth. Very easy to drink, as the balance of fruit and structure is fine, the tannins ripe and supple and the fruit and earth flavors well integrated. There's enough fruit and structure here to allow for 5+ years of cellaring in my opinion.

Indeed the price has gone up for this wine lately ($23.99 before discount near me), but it's still hard to find better drinking for the price.

Price is a gulper compared to past, but still probably a deal in today's market. Not seen near me (T & V doesn't ship).

Happy to see my notes are very similar to yours as my palate is no where near as trained.
