The 2013 Chambolle Musigny 1er Cuvée Jules, named after Virgile’s oldest son, is sourced from plots in Chatelot, Chaviot and Les Sentiers (around one barrel from each). It has quite a rich and generous bouquet with macerated black cherries, violets, blood orange and mineral deposits. This is forward and expressive. The palate is medium-bodied with a gentle grip on the entry. This is nicely focused, but much more backward here than the nose suggests, dealing a firm grip on the finish, though bridled with a long, stony, lightly spiced aftertaste. Very fine.
