Chambolle Musigny, 2018
justerini & brooks tasting note
Instantly friendly and flattering. A fine veneer of silk, though, overlays a powerful ripe fruit core. Velvety flavours of crushed, sweet red summer berries with stickier notes of griotte and damson jam. Seductive whilst managing to keep its freshness. 15 percent whole-bunch fermented.

The 2018 Chambolle-Musigny Village is positively bulging with black and red fruit on the nose of dense blackberry and bilberry; a light marine influence surfaces with time. The palate is well balanced with firm, grippy tannins that feel more robust and slightly drier than the 2019 compared alongside. A little brusque on the finish at the moment; this will require time.
