"A Premier Cru with a more alluring bouquet than the Clos des Mouches Rouge, according to Jancis Robinson!"

“The 2021 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru has a nose with tertiary aromas, where red fruit blends with notes of gravel and undergrowth; it is quite open and less primitive than its counterparts. It offers beautiful precision. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, with supple and delicate tannins; it is beautifully balanced and has an elegant texture with a lovely mouthfeel. Serene and effortlessly smooth on the finish, this is a talented Chambolle that exceeds expectations. 2027–2042” (Vinous 2025)

About the wine:

A wine with a more alluring bouquet than the Clos des Mouches Rouge. Lots of fruit, but also plenty of acidity, structure, and complexity. Well done! 2026–2036

The 2021 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru features a nose with tertiary aromas, where red fruit blends with notes of gravel and undergrowth; it is quite open and less raw than its counterparts. It offers beautiful precision. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, with supple and delicate tannins; it is beautifully balanced and has an elegant texture with a lovely mouthfeel.

About the wine:

Generous aromas of red berries, with notes of dark chocolate and pepper. A ripe, well-structured wine for this appellation, with moderately dry tannins that are already well integrated. A long, elegant finish. Ready to drink now, but will reach its peak starting in 2024.
