FEATURES
🏰 The 2019 vintage in Burgundy is highly acclaimed for its red wines, producing concentrated yet fresh and vibrant expressions. Robert Groffier's Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses 1er Cru 2019 is a standout, benefiting from the estate's significant holdings in this revered vineyard. Robert Groffier is notably the 【 largest single owner of Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses, holding a full 1 hectare 】, a Premier Cru often considered Grand Cru in quality. This wine is described as having an arresting nose with intense black cherries, violet, sous-bois, and graphite aromas. It presents a powerful magenta crimson colour. The palate is medium-bodied with muscular tannins and good grip, leading to an overtly saline finish, with a sensation of shucked oyster shells and a tremendously long aftertaste. There are gorgeous ripe blackberry, mulberry, and pomegranate fruit aromas suffused with rose petals and hints of earth. The texture is lush and voluminous, yet a core of lively acidity ensures the wine remains in dynamic balance. Some notes also mention smoky freshness, purple and pink flowers, jelly cherry notes, fresh mineral, and white pepper, culminating in a long finish with caramel toast, jammy red fruit, ginger, and white pepper. It's an excellent wine, praised for its sumptuous character and persistence.
