Dominique Laurent Chambolle Musigny les Amoureuses

點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：2004

Ruby-colored, the Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses possesses lovely, sweet, refined aromatics of red currants and violets and a thick, massively endowed, slightly gamey, blueberry and cassis-packed personality intertwined with touches of raw meat. This wine's oak was not well-integrated when I tasted it. Will it be resolved at the time of bottling? It will be at its best between 2000-2009.This note is the result of tastings I did in Burgundy between January 7 and January 29. The wine was tasted from cask, not bottle. Pinot Noir, a fragile varietal, reacts poorly to fining, filtration, and careless bottling techniques, I recommend caution when considering buying a red burgundy based on cask samples. I called it as I tasted it, and hope the bottled wine reflects the quality of the samples I was provided.A Patrick Lesec Selection (Paris Fax # 011-33-1-42-84-38-22), various American importers.

Laurent's top 1993s are massively concentrated, huge, intense wines that will require 8-10 years of cellaring. A superstar, the forward, flattering Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses possesses a black/ruby color, and a sweet, gamey, toasty, berry-scented nose, with hints of cassis and minerals. Huge in the mouth, with layers of flavor and a thick, unctuous texture, this ripe, super-endowed wine should drink well for 20 years.A Patrick Lesec Selection (Paris fax # 011 33 1 42843822), various American importers
