The 2013 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru les Amoureuses took a while to “warm up” in the glass, but when it does it reveals gorgeous scents of blackberry, black plum, wild hedgerow and black slate scents. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, supple tannins stuck through with a keen line of acidity. There is moderate depth here. It does not fan out like the 2012 last year, but remains true and linear with a pinch of black pepper adorning the finish. Regal.
Bright crimson. Strong mineral element on the nose. Not at all sweet and perfumed. More of a sportsman ? rigorous and muscular. Very pure and fresh. Sappy. Not flattering but speaks its mind.
