justerini & brooks tasting note

A perfumed sweetness on the nose immediately speaks of a move to Chambolle, the high-toned fruit on the palate set over a firm limestone base. Very red fruited with a touch more grip than some of the other cuvées. Will need a little more time than some of the other wines in the range before being broached. This cuvée comes from two plots, Les Mombies and Nazoires, predominantly from vines planted in the 1950s.

critic reviews

89-91/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2021 Chambolle-Musigny Village, which lost 50% of the crop (less than the Côte de Beaune), has a sensual and focused bouquet with crushed strawberry, redcurrant, sous-bois and just a touch of graphite. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy red fruit; there's a nicely bitter edge to this Chambolle with a peppery finish that doesn't outstay its welcome.
