Vinous

Bright, deep red. Sappy, deep nose offers blackberry, raspberry, menthol and powerful minerality for the year, with a medicinal reserve conveying the impression of a hidden dimension. Wonderfully dense, sappy and sweet, with palate-saturating chewy extract and plenty of material in reserve. The medicinal aspect to the wine's powerful fruit and spice flavors suggest it will need a minimum of 12 years in the cellar. Finishes with outstanding breadth and explosive length. 03/2010

Inside Burgundy

Medium deep in colour, a little deeper than the Bonnes Mares. The nose shows oak with quite concentrated fruit. Then more fruit backed by a little oak as the balance changes with air. On the palate the fruit does show clear nobility. Give this time but we are at the start of a fine and noble wine. More fruit than the Bonnes Mares so the latent acidity is very well covered Tasted Jun 2017.

The 2007 Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru les Amoureuses from Comte de Vogüé has an intense, upfront and quite bold bouquet of cranberry jus, pomegranate and undergrowth, quite showy in de Vogue's style during this decade. The palate is well balanced and perhaps not the most complex Les Amoureuses that I have encountered, yet there is good structure and plenty of sappy black fruit words the finish. Give this another 3-4 years in bottle. Tasted February 2016. 04/2016
