2022 Chambolle-Musigny "Les Amoureuses" 1er Cru

The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses 1er Cru, which will be bottled in January, has a lovely bouquet: a mélange of red and black fruit, brown spices, crushed violets and iris flower. The medium-bodied palate offers pure black cherries, raspberry fruit, and filigree tannins with a very harmonious, cashmere-textured finish that lingers in the mouth. Bon vin.

The floral delicacy of this wine is astonishing, but the intensity of the minerality is even more remarkable, making this the most mineral young red Burgundy I ever encountered. And then there’s the very concentrated yet subtle red-fruit character. Daringly racy and spectacularly delicate! Limited quantity, due to the replanting underway in this site.

The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses is a tiny cuvée this year, as out of de Vogüé's 0.56 hectares in this climat, almost 0.20 are in the process of replanting. Wafting from the glass with aromas of cherries, raspberries and plums mingled with rose petals and warm spices, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and charming, with a still-primary core of fruit framed by powdery tannins, concluding with a saline, mouthwatering finish.
