Chambolle-Musigny “Premier Cru”, Joseph Drouhin, FR, 2019

James Suckling 94Pts.

Lovely forest-berry and black-cherry nose that is already quite open. Interesting tough of clove. Excellent structure, the tannins interlocking very nicely with the medium to full body and the generous fruit. Rather a bold finish for this appellation, but in a very positive way. A blend of four 1er Crus. Drink or hold.

Winemaker Notes

Fine lace and silk are the words most often associated with this wine. Bright, intense color and complex aromas evoking violet, black cherry and damp earth. According to the vintages, there are also notes of truffle and game. Refined tannins coat the palate. Good balance between texture and acidity. Long aftertaste, with notes of cherry and candied fruit.
