Tasting Notes
Vinous 90+
Deep, bright red. Very ripe aromas of black raspberry and coffee/mocha torrefaction. Expressive, rich flavors of crushed cherry, dark raspberry, coffee and spices are nicely framed by spicy acidity. Conveys a jellied fruit character along with an almost warm floral element. This fairly tight, long wine still has some corners that need softening.

The 2011 Chambolle-Musigny Village has a fragrant, voluminous bouquet with plush red cherries intermingling with black currant and a touch of cassis. The palate is sweet on the entry with pure black cherry and cassis fruit. The tannins are fine and underpin a linear Chambolle-Musigny: quite conservative in style with sappy black fruit defining the finish. Drink now-2018.
Anticipated maturity: 2013-2018

A ripe, cool and restrained nose of red and blue pinot fruit that is liberally laced with violet and wet stone nuances leads to textured and solidly well-concentrated medium-bodied flavors that possess good punch and a touch of minerality on the persistent finish. There is fine precision as well as a refreshing element of firm but ripe acidity that adds focus without being aggressive.

Deep crimson – deeper than most. Real savour on the nose. On the palate still rather simple though there is a lot of matière here. Wait!
Anticipated maturity: 2018-2030
