2016 perrot-minot, chambolle-musigny, vieilles vignes

Burghound

(from 90 to 100 year old vines in Les Bussières where ~40 of the blend is from four different 1ers). A more elegant and complex nose combines notes of dark raspberry, cherry, violet, lavender and pretty spice whiffs. The sleek, intense and mineral-inflected middle weight plus flavors brim with dry extract as well as a highly attractive underlying tension while delivering first-rate depth and persistence on the balanced finish. While it's true that almost half of the blend is from premier cru vineyards, this is still a superb Chambolle villages and very much worth your attention. Drink 2024+ 90-93 Points
