CHAMBOLLE-MUSIGNY 1ER CRU “LES AMOUREUSES”
JD 384.00
Between Vougeot and Morey-Saint-Denis, at the heart of the Côte de Nuits, the small village of Chambolle-Musigny derives its name from an ancient Celtic village called “Cambola”.
A much-praised Côte de Nuits Climat, “Les Amoureuses” is certainly the best known of Chambolle-Musigny’s 24 Premier Crus. As its name (Women in Love) would suggest, this is a delicate, feminine wine that elicits great emotion.
TASTING
The infinitely delicate nose reveals scents of red fruit (raspberry, strawberry…) and subtle floral notes (rose, violet…). The palate is rich and concentrated, supported by well-integrated oak and bold yet extremely silky tannins. This exceptional wine’s finish boasts remarkable length and subtlety.
FOOD/WINE PAIRING
Taste this wine with roasted or stewed meats (poultry, veal, lamb, feathered game), or with mild cheeses.
Recipe suggestion: grenadin of veal with morel mushrooms
SERVING AND KEEPING
Serve at 16-17°C (60-62°F).
Aging potential: 5 to 7 years and more.
