The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Les Charmes 1er Cru is one of Pascale Mugneret's gems and this is no different. Very pure and sensual on the nose it blossoms from the glass with animated red fruit laced with crushed rock and rose bush. The palate is medium-bodied with impressive concentration. This cuvée will need time for the oak to be subsumed but the finish has a wonderful length. Excellent. (Drink between 2027 - 2048)
Dark purple rich ripe and supple with some reduction. Quite firm a little oak showing this wants to be opulent and joyous with quite dark fruit but slightly held back for the moment by the reduction. Medium concentration at the finish.
The super-fresh nose of cool and airy aromas comprised by red cherry black raspberry rose petal and a whisper of spice especially anise. There is terrific intensity to the beautifully delineated mineral-driven flavors that possess a refined mouthfeel before culminating in a balanced beautifully long and youthfully austere finale. This is terrific indeed it's quite classy and definitely worth your interest. (Drink starting 2032)
The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Charmes was in quite a structured phase when I encountered it unwinding in the glass with aromas of smoky berries exotic spices and rose petals. Medium to full-bodied deep and concentrated with a velvety attack that segues into a vibrant mid-palate framed by sweet powdery tannins it's pure and penetrating. by William Kelley
