The 2015 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru les Amoureuses has a detailed, slightly earthy bouquet that maybe does not quite capture the exuberance of the vineyard like some of the others that I have encountered. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy red berry fruit, fine acidity and seamlessly integrated oak. It fans out gently towards the finish, silky in texture with a dark cherry and cassis aftertaste. Very fine, although the aromatics just need to up their game.
Very dark crimson. Not very expressive on the nose but massive concentration. All builds towards the end. Very masculine stereotype! Lots more tannins than most.
