Chambolle-Musigny

2009 Pousse d'Or Chambolle-Musigny

Just a hint of toasty oak on the nose; dark fruit bubbles below. Fresh, good acidity here though currently offering a rather narrow flavour-impression. There is obvious oak as a flavour component which obscures much of what I’d hope to find in a Chambolle. I like the shape of the wine but time will tell how good it is as the oak fades.

From a number of parcels, with mix of vines of 45-50 years old. Ripe, high-toned fruit is supported by a baked fruit element. In the mouth the structure is currently slightly ahead of the fruit – but what elegant and pretty fruit it is – and it lingers beautifully.

From three parcels. The nose is hiding a little – very understated until it eventually widens a little. Nice intensity and a good matching acidity. It doesn’t shout Chambolle to me, but it is a pretty wine and offers excellent value.

The nose is direct but precise. Round, absolutely mouth-filling with plenty of understated structure – only in the mid-palate does the flavour of Chambolle come through. Quite approachable now.

Good colour. Full aromas. In the mouth, despite decent concentration, this seems very tight. Just a little tannin and pretty fruit before the finish.
