2023 Chambolle Musigny Les Amoureuses

The 2023 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses is exquisite, soaring from the glass with a captivating bouquet of sweet red berries mingled with rose petals, violets, incense, exotic spices and blood orange. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and sensual, it's deep and seamless, with a layered, suave and weightless but intense core of fruit, concluding with a lavishly perfumed and mouthwateringly mineral finish.

80% whole clusters. Cask sample. Mid ruby. Scented, floral nose with rose and flowers. Mid weight with a lovely, fine texture. Very concise and precise. Lofty and floral right to the long finish. (MH)
