The 2015 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Cras has a pastille-like purity on the nose, tightly wound at first but gaining in vigor with mulberry, blackberry and raspberry scents. The palate is beautifully balanced with very fine tannin, a little denser than the Combettes with a firmer grip in the mouth. There is very good salinity on the finish that feels stern at the moment, but will flesh out once the cellar warms up and the wine approaches bottling. At present the Chambolle Combottes has the edge, but let's see in ten years time.
Rich and sumptuous. Very polished and dense with great savoury intensity. Lovely texture. Lots of fine tannins on the end. Quite serious on the end.?
