The Chambolle-Musigny reveals a charming spicy and floral nose and an elegant mouth packed with dark cherries and rose petals. Slightly tannic on the finish, this medium-bodied wine should be cellared for 3-4 years and drunk before 2005. This note is the result of tastings I did in Burgundy between January 7 and January 29. The wine was tasted from cask, not bottle. Pinot Noir, a fragile varietal, reacts poorly to fining, filtration, and careless bottling techniques, I recommend caution when considering buying a red burgundy based on cask samples. I called it as I tasted it, and hope the bottled wine reflects the quality of the samples I was provided.
Each of Domaine Lecheneaut's offerings is a pleasure to recommend. These wines are lush and sweet but capable of aging well, as the 1990s I have in my cellar continue to prove.
