FEATURES
The 2019 Cécile Tremblay Chambolle-Musigny Les Feusselottes 1er Cru is a standout from a vintage Cécile herself considered excellent, noting, "Oh I did well, these are good." Cécile Tremblay, the great-niece of legendary Henri Jayer, established her domaine in 2003 and has quickly risen as a "must-try rising star of the Côte-de-Nuits," cultivating her vines organically. The 2019 Feusselottes is particularly lauded, with some suggesting it might be the "finest Feusselottes that Tremblay has produced to date." This wine offers a complex bouquet of raspberries and blackberries, intertwined with hints of orange rind, violets, and exotic spices. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, satiny, and enveloping, showcasing a layered core of fruit, lively acids, and remarkable structural finesse for a young, concentrated wine. Expect floral notes of rose, peony, and violet, alongside red fruit aromas of raspberry, blackcurrant, and strawberry, culminating in a full-bodied yet remarkably suave texture.
🍴 This elegant red Burgundy, unusually, is recommended with white meat, but also pairs beautifully with roasted duck, mushroom-based dishes like risotto, coq au vin, or lighter game birds.
🥂 The 2019 Cécile Tremblay Chambolle-Musigny Les Feusselottes 1er Cru is a magnificent wine with the potential for greatness, suitable for a celebratory dinner, a special occasion, or for cellaring to appreciate its further evolution. It's a wine that impresses with its finesse, depth, and vibrant energy.
