90-92 points, “The 2020 Chambolle-Musigny Vieilles Vignes comes from 50-year-old vines from a number of small parcels. It has plenty of cranberry and wild strawberry fruit on the nose, very vivacious with a touch of crushed stone underneath. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy tannins, fine grip and volume with Morey-like structure on the finish. Very fine.” – Antonio Galloni’s Vinous
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.
2020 was the third hot year in row in Burgundy, with many critics questioning whether the climate crisis is making this the norm now. The reds are intense, juicy and surprisingly fresh considering the heat. Generally, they are joyous wines, but there is some variation. Luckily you have Harvey Nichols to pick out the highlights for you. Such as this stunning old vine Chambolle-Musigny, which ripples with tension and energy, plus dark berry fruits, cranberry, raspberry, strawberry, 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.
