NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Joseph Drouhin Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru 'Les Amoureuses' is an elegant and highly perfumed expression of Pinot Noir from the Cote de Nuits.On the nose, aromas of red and black cherry, dark plum, violets, and sweet spices are complemented by earthy notes of truffle and forest floor. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a vibrant acidity and tannins that are present but well-integrated. Flavors of tart plum, raspberry, and baking spices persist through the long, mineral-driven finish. Overall, this is an incredibly balanced and structured expression of Chambolle-Musigny.
