A small amount of whole bunch and a lot of sorting. The 2021 Chambolle has a rich deep purple colour with a fairly full deep dark fruit on the nose. Nothing overly weighty, a bit of grenadine alongside the dark raspberry fruit, good acidity, lively and fresh with fine persistence

(from 20 different parcels). Cool, pure and restrained aromas reflect those of violet, red and dark cherry and a touch of green tea. There is excellent cut and minerality to the medium weight flavors that also possess very fine length as well as slightly better depth on the youthfully austere finale. Very good quality in a package that should repay mid-term keeping.

The 2021 Chambolle-Musigny Vieilles Vignes unwinds in the glass with aromas of plums, cassis and spices, rendered reticent by a touch of youthful reduction. Medium to full-bodied, lively and concentrated, it's one of the more reserved wines in the cellar today, but the underlying materials show plenty of promise.
