I really like the Quintet for Strings "Unknown Heavens" by Einojuhani Rautavaara from 1997.
Some of my favorite chamber works are by John Harbison, but they're from the eighties and fall outside of your criteria for contemporary works. Still, things like his string quartets Nos. 1 & 2 are so good that I feel compelled to mention them. This recording is a favorite of mine.
Along the same lines I can recommend the string quartets of John McCabe, but these works are also from the eighties.
Honestly, I've not been very impressed with chamber music in the last decade or so. Richard Dubugnon released an album on Naxos that was pretty good, but it's just not as compelling as the stuff I previously mentioned.
