2016 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru 'Les Amoureuses' 0,75 l Domaine Amiot Servelle

The 2016 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses, which included 20% whole bunch fruit, offers pretty red berry fruit laced with spice and hints of brine on the nose. I appreciate the manner in which this opens up. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, juicier than the domaine's other premier crus, with impressive substance and purity on the finish. The quality of the vineyard really carries this wine and though not the "best in show" when it comes to this premier cru, there is much to enjoy here.
