As usual, good rather than exhilarating wines were made at this famous estate in Chambolle-Musigny. Despite reports that quality here has returned to the form of the 1972 and prior vintages, I remain convinced that this property is producing entirely too much wine to obtain the concentration necessary. What's more, its decision to filter its wines a decade ago has stripped many of the wines of at least 30% of their potential bouquet and flavor.
Crisp and a little chewy but still stylish, showing its grand cru breed with spice, toast and black cherry flavors.
