The 2019 Chambolle-Musigny Village has turned out beautifully, unwinding in the glass with notes of raspberries and cherries mingled with subtle hints of petals and spices. Medium to full-bodied, elegantly fleshy and precise, with a nicely concentrated core of fruit, lively acids and powdery tannins, it's more classically proportioned than its richer, riper 2018 counterpart.

The 2018 Chambolle-Musigny Village is showing very well from bottle, opening in the glass with aromas of raspberries and cherries mingled with hints of raw cocoa, forest floor and woodsmoke. Medium to full-bodied, rich and fleshy, with powdery structuring tannins, succulent acids and an enveloping core of fruit, it has turned out very nicely.

Soaring from the glass with a lovely bouquet of raspberries, red cherries, spices, orange rind and coniferous forest floor, Drouhin's 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Village is medium-bodied, velvety and supple, with succulent acids, melting tannins and a fragrant core of fruit. Tasted from bottle, this quintessentially elegant wine is showing very well, and it will offer a broad drinking window.

The 2016 Chambolle-Musigny Village has a light and rather linear bouquet that is missing the sensuality that other vintages of this exact wine have offered. The palate is medium-bodied with light tannin and nicely judged acidity; however, it does not offer the panache or the harmony of either the Vosne-Romanée or the Gevrey-Chambertin. Hopefully, there will be some uplift once this is in bottle.

The 2015 Chambolle-Musigny Village has an attractive bouquet with black plum, undergrowth and wilted violet scents. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, smooth and harmonious, not enormous weight but nicely controlled and sensual on the finish. It gives you just about all you seek in a village cru level Chambolle.
