In most vintages the Baudes gets blended into the Chambolle Premier Cru bottling, but in exceptional vintages it is bottled on its own. The 2009 will be an excellent wine, as it offers up a complex and very refined nose of red and black cherries, violets, raw cocoa, a great base of soil, woodsmoke and mustard seed. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and nicely reserved on the attack, with a fine core of sappy fruit, ripe tannins and fine backend energy and grip. This will be a really superb bottle in six or seven years time. (Drink between 2017-2040)
