Note di degustazione
The Leroy 2005 Chambolle-Musigny Les Charmes smells enchantingly of bergamot, lily-of-the-valley, maraschino, framboise liqueur and crystallized ginger. Yet for all of this sweetness in the nose, the wine comes to the palate refreshingly free of superficial sucrosity. Cherry pit bitterness and bright, ripe fruit acids, plus scintillating inner-mouth florality contribute to an impression of great precision and “cut” (the last word I would have used in describing any of the preceding Leroy 2005s) and the taster is carried away on a wafting wealth of finishing fruit, flowers, spice, marrow and chalk essence-of-Chambolle. (The texture is silken and refined to a remarkable but, in the Leroy context, by now routine degree.) Importer: Martine’s Wines. Novato, CA; tel. (415) 883-0400

Bright red-ruby color. Very sexy nose offers pungent red berries and wild rose, with an almost liqueur-like suggestion of raspberry coulis. Suave, silky and dense, with an impression of minerally acidity giving the primary but complex flavors terrific definition and cut. Wonderfully balanced wine with the spine to age slowly and gracefully. Tannins are broad and fine.
