This is a vintage where managing the crop load was critical in achieving balance

Georges Roumier, Chambolle Musigny other_regions and the older vine cuvee(contains some premier cru juice from Les Fues). This is exuberantly fresh with its pretty array that is composed by notes of both red and dark pinot fruit, floral and tea aromas. There is a lovely sense of underlying tension to the mineral inflected, refined and lacy medium weight flavors that deliver excellent length on the balanced and beautifully persistent if slightly warm finale. This concentrated effort is very Chambolle in basic character. 90
