Note di degustazione
(30% vendange entier ): Good medium red. Slightly reduced aromas of strawberry and smoke. Then dense, ripe and juicy in the mouth, showing a silky texture but coming across as a bit youthfully sullen today. Substantial ripe tannins call for some patience.

(from three parcels of vines and five different vine ages, from 6 to 95 years old; Tremblay bought out these vines in 2009 and radically changed the pruning in 2010): Deep, dark red. Wild aromas of musky brown spices and white pepper. Creamy-rich and supple on entry, then silky in the middle, showing modest acidity. Then a bit more taut on the back end, finishing with rather suave, sweet tannins and very good length.
Sweet rose petals, dark red berries, spices and flowers all jump from the glass in the Chambolle-Musigny Les Cabottes. Intense and bursting with exuberance, the 2012 is explosive to the core. Concentration and pure volume are the hallmarks. My impression is that the 2012 will start drinking well relatively early. It is already immensely appealing, not to mention long on personality.
40% whole bunch. 25% new oak. Blend of Fremières, Aux Échanges and Maladières. She acquired the vines in 2009. Dark purplish crimson. Seems to be some obvious whole-bunch freshness here – even more than in the Morey! Lots of juicy fruit and some attractively appetising structure. A little bit of gas and lots of charm. (JR)
