“Wafting from the glass with notes of cherries, raspberries and plums mingled with raw cocoa and candied peel, the 2018 Chambolle-Musigny Vieilles Vignes is medium to full-bodied, velvety and charming, with a ripe core of nicely concentrated fruit, powdery tannins and lively acids. This cuvée saw one of the later malolactic fermentations of the range and took its time to come together, but it is more and more promising.” – Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
When it comes to Chambolle-Musigny, it’s easy to be blinded by superstars like Domaines Jacques-Frederic Mugnier, Georges Roumier and Comte Georges de Vogüé. However, there’s a wave of stunning up-and-coming producers snapping at their heels, and the sibling team of Gilbert and Christine Felettig are at the head of that pack.
2018 was a heatwave vintage, resulting in fruity and juicy reds of excellent quality. This old vine Chambolle-Musigny ripples with tension and energy, plus dark berry fruits, raspberry, plum, exotic spices and minerality. The Felettigs keep winemaking simple, and that purity and precision comes through in the glass. For food matching bear that in mind and go for simple dishes that let the highest quality ingredients shine.
