Note di degustazione
High-toned kirsch and suggestions of mushrooms and well-hung game in the nose of the Groffier 2006 Chambolle-Musigny Les Hauts Doix lead to a rather delicate, brightly red-fruited palate with intriguing spicy and fungal notes. This belies its relatively light color and body with an emphatic and persistent, pungently spicy and sweetly-ripe finish. I suspect it will be best enjoyed over the next half dozen years. Serge Groffier points out some similarity to the 2001, which is au point now. The 2006 Groffier collection – from fruit picked beginning September 23, and in only four days – was noticeably lower in alcohol than a number of recent predecessors, and was diminished by one-third vis-a-vis 2005, after botrytis- and hail-affected berries had been culled.

Good full red. Sexy aromas of raspberry, crushed stone, leather and smoke. Juicy on entry, then fresh, fruity and sweet, with firm underlying spine to the red berry and leather flavors. Finishes broad and long, with dusty, suave tannins.
Red-ruby. Liqueur-like red berries, exotic spices and smoked meat on the complex nose. Supple and sweet but still a bit youthfully tight. Shows some caramelly oak, but this juicy wine is more fruit-driven than the Gevrey villages Finishes sweet and persistent.
