2001 Faiveley Latricières-Chambertin, France, Burgundy, Wine Review
Very nice chowing for this bottle which seems to be at peak. Ruby in color, mostly clear and bright. The nose is clean and on the more elegant side. Cherries, slight leathery notes, and just a hint of warm earth. Medium bodied. Just a wisp of tannins. Nice balance. On the palate, this has some depth and has a lovely texture. Flavors of cherries with a bit of old wood notes. Good finish. This worked better with food though it was nice on its own. I had a Japanese vegetable soup that paired well. Drink over the next fivve to eight years.
