Outstanding
A more elegant array is composed by notes of airy black cherry, violet and plum where additional breadth is present in the form of spice and lavender nuances. The sleek, rich and well-detailed flavors exude evident minerality that carries over to the balanced, clean and dry-in-the-best-sense finish that flashes a hint of youthful austerity. Lovely. Drink: 2030+
The 2015 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Fuées has long been the "dark horse" of the domaine and Frédéric and I concurred that this is an underrated premier cru, that here probably lies in the shadow of Les Amoureuses. It has a very harmonious, understated bouquet with slightly earthy red berry fruit that begin to open in the glass, revealing blackberry and briary scents that are gentle and detailed. The palate is medium-bodied with a pinch of spice on the entry. It feels cohesive in the mouth and comes across reassuringly "classic" in style, blackberry and pomegranate towards the long and poised finish. 2020 - 2040
