Chambolle-Musigny Les Veroilles Ghislaine Barthod 2005 is a Burgundy red with a deep ruby hue. The nose presents a clear expression of red fruit, specifically cherry and raspberry, alongside earthy undertones and subtle floral notes. The palate offers depth with ripe fruit, well-integrated tannins and an elegant structure. The minerality is pronounced, adding complexity. Ghislaine Barthod, known for her meticulous vineyard practices, often employs traditional winemaking methods, favouring specific plots within the Chambolle-Musigny appellation, resulting in wines of character and longevity. This vintage is expected to develop further in the bottle.

Barthod’s 2005 Chambolle-Musigny Les Veroilles leads with a Nebbiolo-like bouquet of violets, blond tobacco and black tea with distilled cherry high-tones, all atop an aromatic base of blackberry and purple plum that take on liqueur-like dimensions as the wine overruns the palate. Inner-mouth florality and honeyed, spicy accents add exotic allure to an already intense fruit appeal. While fat in its ripe fruit presentation, this wine boasts a boatload of fine tannins and a palpable sense of mineral extract, finishing with cherry, blackberry, plum, horehound, pepper, honey, chocolate, tobacco and chalk that left me chewing the air afterward. Give this at least 8-10 years rest and expect many more of enjoyment. - David Schildknecht
94 Vinous
Saturated ruby-red. Brilliantly pure nose offers cassis, blackberry, violet, minerals and crushed rock. Lush, fat and thick but with terrific lift. The mineral and violet flavors are currently accompanied by a superripe suggestion of chocolate that Barthod is confident will disappear with time in bottle. This very large-scaled, mouthfilling wine has a texture of liquid velvet, but there's also terrific cut. Another great bottle in the making but this, too, will need at least a decade in the cellar.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2008
