Tasting Notes
-
Burghound, January 2015,
Score: 93(this limited two barrel cuvée is crafted from 70+ year old vines that abut the Musigny climat which is also called La Combe d’Orveau and is a monopole of Domaine Jacques Prieur; it is not produced every vintage as it is only made from shot berries, known as millerandage - see the Burghound glossary for more detail; 50% whole clusters). Deep ruby. An intensely floral nose is highly perfumed with spice, plum and cassis. The incredibly dense and muscular broad-shouldered flavors possess almost painful intensity before terminating in a hugely long, palate staining and mineral-inflected finish. Despite the imposing size, weight and concentration this retains a fine sense of balance though this will clearly need a few years first as it’s very tight at the moment. Drink 2024+

Region
Chambolle-Musigny
The wines of Chambolle Musigny are like no other. They can be superbly delicate, yet mindblowingly complex. Of all the northern Burgundy appellations, they are the most ethereal, and as a result the most feminine. Most of the Chambolle Musigny vineyard area is encompassed in its Village and Premier Cru appellations including the robust Beaux Bruns, the splendidly mineral Le Cras and the poised yet powerful Les Amoureuses. It produces only two Grand Crus - the round and rich Bonnes Mares which it shares with Morey St. Dénis, as well as what could be described as the Stradivarius of grand crus, Musigny.
