The 2012 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Cras is a negociant wine, but Jean-Nicolas informed me that the domaine manages the vineyard entirely. This was harvested within the first two days. It has a pleasing pomegranate and wild strawberry scented bouquet that is well-defined, almost Vosne-like in style. The palate is well structured with crisp, tensile tannins, plenty of red berry fruit but it just needs a little more presence towards the finish. That might manifest during the elevage. Quite stylish, though I might drink this perhaps in the first six or seven years after bottling.
