🏰 The 2022 Burgundy vintage was characterized by a hot and dry summer, producing sunny, supple whites and silky, red-fruit Pinot Noir. Chambolle-Musigny was considered a "sweet spot" in this vintage, yielding joyous, fresh, and vibrant Pinot Noir with ripe yet crunchy fruit, fine tannins, and moderate alcohol levels. The wines from this year are noted for their purity of fruit, subtle texture, freshness, and energy. Domaine Tortochot's Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru Les Sentiers comes from a prestigious plot located at the border between Chambolle-Musigny and Morey-Saint-Denis, just below the Grand Cru Bonnes-Mares. 【 From a "sweet spot" vintage for Chambolle-Musigny, offering remarkable purity and elegance from a prestigious 1er Cru vineyard 】
Expect a very pretty perfume, blossom-fresh, with a muslin-delicate texture. The wine is quite full but airy, with a light and chalky line, woven with freshness to a salty finish. The nose reveals infinitely delicate scents of red fruit, such as raspberry and strawberry, along with subtle floral notes of rose and violet. The palate is delicate yet fleshy and very flavorful, boasting silky tannins and a long, elegant finish. Early indications for the 2022 vintage suggest a round and balanced expression.
🍴 This elegant red Burgundy is an excellent companion for roasted or stewed meats like poultry, veal, lamb, and feathered game. It also pairs wonderfully with mild cheeses, roasted orange chicken, or seared duck.
🥂 The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny wines are described as "super-charming and forthcoming," making them enjoyable in their youth. However, this wine also has clear aging potential, with some suggesting it can be reasonably approached after 7 to 8 years for full maturity, making it suitable for both immediate pleasure and cellaring for special occasions.
