Note di degustazione
The 1999 Chambolle-Musigny Les Charmes 1er Cru just has the edge over the 2001 when compared side-by-side. That said, I have a slight preference towards the aromatics of the 2001, this offering lovely red fruit laced with a light marine influence and espresso. The palate is where the action is: beautifully balanced and more powerful than the 2001, very precise and satin-like in texture. Unlike the 2001 this appears to improve with aeration, gaining more and more depth and fanning out with a sense of confidence towards the sappy finish. It just exudes the essence of Chambolle-Musigny with a lingering aftertaste. 538 bottles produced. Tasted at Carré des Feuillants restaurant in Paris.

The saturated, medium to dark ruby-colored 1999 Chambolle-Musigny Les Charmes has a fresh cherry and earth-scented nose. Medium to full-bodied, satin-textured, and round, it exhibits loads of sweet cherries in its feminine, gorgeous personality. This is an expansive wine that appears to gain power and strength as it comes in contact with air. Additionally, it possesses a seamless, extremely long finish. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2015+. Importer: Martine's Wines, San Raphael, CA; tel. (415) 485-1800.
Bright ruby-red. Musky, complex aromas of raspberry, roast coffee and minerals; essence of Chambolle. Sweet, smooth and seamless in the middle palate, with flavors of red berries, minerals and spices enlivened by sound acidity. Very firm underlying backbone. Finishes quite long and brisk, with lovely grip and slightly edgy tannins.
