Note di degustazione
The 2020 Chambolle-Musigny Les Sentiers 1er Cru has a well-defined bouquet, is nicely focused and does not show any of the heat that marks some of the Chambolle Premier Crus. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins and fine acidity. It's pretty saline in the mouth, but for a Chambolle, it feels a little slender and rigid on the finish. This is a rather disappointing showing compared to its wonderful performance in barrel, a view shared by others at this group tasting. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

80 year old vines grown on a clay soil which gets the afternoon sun, 13.5% alcohol, 100% whole bunch and 25% new wood. Another dense crimson purple colour. The bouquet has more of a fruit compote style. You can see the stems but they are more hidden in the fruit. There is a very substantial mouthful of plummy dark raspberry, good oak integration, plenty of spice and excellent persistence.
The 2020 Chambolle-Musigny Les Sentiers 1er Cru is 100% whole bunch this year, matured in 25% new oak. Those stems lend a discrete pepper bass note to the wild cherry and bergamot top notes, well defined and poised. The palate is well balanced with crunchy red fruit, quite saline in the mouth and for a Chambolle, a little angular towards the finish. Yet there is great tension interwoven into this wine from start to finish and it should age with aplomb.
