The 2016 Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru les Chabiots was picked on 25 September, includes 30% whole bunch fruit and 35% new oak barrels. It has a pretty bouquet, quite pure considering that the appellation was affected by frost, with subtle rose petal scents filtering through the crushed strawberry fruit with a touch of cold stone. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, nicely poised with a fresh, quite lithe and harmonious finish that lingers in the mouth. Very fine.

Pretty berry, rose, sandalwood and vanilla notes grace this silky, delicate red. Beautifully balanced and almost seamless in texture, making this approachable now. Should age well. Drink now through 2035. 500 cases made, 100 cases imported.??–BS??Region: France / Burgundy / Chambolle-Musigny Select to Add
