TASTING NOTE
Vintage
This is a suave and seductive iteration of Chambolle-Musigny, carrying effortlessly all of the attractive traits of the village. Elegant and balanced with a slowly revealing perfume of strawberries, red cherries and subtle sweet earth, the palate segues from enlivening acid into comforting ultra-smooth tannins, which prolong the abundant fruit presence while hinting at a complex undercurrent of soft spice and soil notes. The combination of plots rich in limestone, marl or clay bring definition, weight and poise to a wine which will unfurl gracefully in the coming decade while being dangerously enjoyable in its youth.
Food Match
Pair alongside a hearty chicken and morel casserole with roast potatoes.
