Tasting Notes
Vinous 89-90
Medium red. Redcurrant and red cherry aromas are complicated by hints of leather and underbrush. More mineral- and soil-driven than the village wine, with its silky texture enlivened by a saline quality. This rather elegantly styled wine finishes with fine-grained tannins and subtle lingering sweetness.

The 2014 Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru contains 10% whole cluster fruit. It has a fragrant, floral bouquet with rose petals infusing the soft red cherry and strawberry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, ripe red cherry and strawberry fruit. Lovely balance here, quite mellow but with fine poise towards the finish. This is very fine.

10% whole cluster. 17 months in oak. Mid translucent cherry red. Dark spicy cherry with some attractive graphite/smoky notes. Fine, dry texture. Slightly chewy on the finish but still supple. Needs time to open up on the palate. A little damped down at the moment. (JH)
