The 2016 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses was partially affected by frost. It has a voluminous, quite intense bouquet with gorgeous black and red fruit, bilberry and blackcurrant, later a hint of blueberry. It opens magnificently with time. The palate is medium-bodied with filigreed tannin, crystalline blue and black fruit, pitch perfect acidity and a caressing, sensual finish. This will stand shoulder to shoulder with the exemplary 2015—a ravishing but intellectual Les Amoureuses that is bound to find plenty of lovers.
