The 2016 Chambolle Musigny les Artets will have 25% new oak this year, one out of four barrels, as Guillaume did not want to jump up to 50% new oak. This is actually half first- and half second-generation grapes. It has a mixture of red and black fruit on the nose, well defined with fine delineation. The palate is smooth in the mouth with fine acidity, a little graininess to the texture, and there is good depth here with black fruit and touches of tobacco surfacing toward the finish that veers slightly toward Morey-Saint-Denis in terms of tannic structure. This is a commendable wine given the growing season, if not quite matching last season's 2015.
