The 2010 Chambolle-Musigny Les Baudes shows the more masculine, virile side of Chambolle in its dark fruit, menthol and spices. Deep layers of fruit continue to unfold as the wine sits in the glass, all supported by firm yet well-integrated tannins. A long, impeccable finish rounds out this stellar Chambolle. In 2010 the Baudes is flat-out great. Baudes lies just below Bonnes-Mares and a certain similarity to the wines from that great side is evident in the structural profile. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2030. This is a knock-out set of wines from Ghislaine Barthod. Yields were, of course, down significantly for the same reasons that affected every grower. The wines possess wonderful clarity and verve throughout the range. I will report on the 2009s from bottle in the April issue. For now, let me say both the 2009s and 2010s are fabulous. Readers who can find them should absolutely not hesitate. Importer: Rosenthal Wine Merchant, Pine Plains, NY; tel. (800) 910-1990
