Chambolle Musigny, Vieilles Vignes, 2016

Available Vintages
justerini & brooks tasting note

A blend of two parcels, Gamaires and Drazey, where the soils constitute lime-rich clay. Aromatic suave and fine, round but lifted by beautiful red berry fruit perfume. Open-knit and beautiful from the off.

critic reviews

86-89/100Stephen Tanzer,Vinous

(from Les Drazey and Les Gamaires): Medium red. High-pitched aromas of cranberry, pomegranate and flowers. A distinctly lean, salty wine dominated by tart red berries. Tightly wound, dry and classic, finishing with a touch of mineral austerity.

89-91/100Neal Martin,Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2016 Chambolle-Musigny Vieilles Vignes comes from purchased grapes sourced from two lieux-dits: Drazy and Grammaire. It is 100% destemmed with 20% new oak. It has a seductive nose of baked black cherries, vanilla pod and hints of blue fruit that blossom immediately in the glass. The palate is well balanced with succulent ripe red cherry and cranberry fruit, a pleasant chalky texture toward the latter half with a mineral-intense finish. Excellent.
