Chanson Père et Fils

2007 Chanson Père et Fils Pernand Vergelesses Les Vergelesses

By billn on June 30, 2010

Medium, medium-plus colour. Warm, comfortable dark red fruit. There is freshness and a nice minerality to the structure – there is some power here.

2007 Chanson Père et Fils Savigny-lès-Beaune Les Dominode

By billn on June 30, 2010

Medium colour. Less width but much more depth of fruit. This is a little sweeter and friendlier but has a structure not to be under-estimated. There’s a long, mineral finish.

2007 Chanson Père et Fils Beaune Clos des Fèves

By billn on June 30, 2010

Medium, medium-plus colour. There is a nice precision to the fruit here – very nice aromas. In the mouth I find this less generous than many from 2007 but there is a lovely high-toned red fruit flavour.

2007 Chanson Père et Fils Nuits St.Georges

By billn on June 30, 2010

Medium, medium-plus colour. Darker aromas, slowly cooking cherries. It’s a different kind of attack. Good width and intensity, the velvet tannin slowly builds. The flavours linger very well, sticking to the inside of your mouth.

2007 Chanson Père et Fils Gevrey-Chambertin

By billn on June 30, 2010

Medium, medium-plus colour. Dark fruit and a more spicy, hebal width. Ripe fruit and plenty of structure – freshness too. Frankly, this will need a year or so in bottle, but the underlying fruit is very good.

Blanc. Pale lemon colour. Fine, tight and pretty aromas. A faint hint of transient oak, a little fat and plenty of silk – very mineral with a subtle length, delivered on good acidity. This is very good.

2007 Chanson Père et Fils Beaune Clos des Mouches

By billn on June 30, 2010

Pale lemon yellow. Riper and denser fruit aromas. A hint less silk, but it is replaced by a concentration of more fruit-driven flavours. Still shows a fine balance and good minerality. This finishes long…

2007 Chanson Père et Fils Meursault

By billn on June 30, 2010

Pale again. The fruit aroma has more impact and a more creamy impression. Not quite as fat as the Beaune and very good good texture. This is a smaller wine in all physical dimensions, that must be why it’s half the price of the Clos des Mouches!

2007 Chanson Père et Fils Chassagne-Montrachet

By billn on June 30, 2010

Medium-pale colour. More understated aromatic width than the Meursault. There is some Chassagne power but it remains quite a linear wine. Enough concentration? I’m not sure, perhaps it’s just the linear presentation but I’m missing a little intensity – so complaints about the finish though – above average for a villages.
