Ghislaine suggested that the 2016 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Véroilles was offered some protection from the frost as it is located in a shallow valley. There are three and a half barrels this year. It has a splendid bouquet with pure dark cherries, rose petals and mineral notes, very focused with conveying a sense of energy. The palate is medium-bodied with tensile, slightly chalky tannins that lend superb tension. There is the same density here as Les Fuées but with just a little more grip and mass on the finish. Superb, especially given that this is a less renowned vineyard.
