2021 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogue, Chambolle-Musigny

For reports and full tasting notes, go toTim Atkin MW's website.

The 2021 Chambolle-Musigny Village offers up aromas of sweet berries, exotic spices, orange rind and forest floor, followed by a medium-bodied, supple and fleshy palate that's sapid and melting, with a pretty core of fruit and a perfumed finish.

The 2021 Chambolle-Musigny Village comes mainly from a large parcel in Porlettes with 10% from Les Fuées and Baudes. This was co-fermented instead of blended at the end of the barrel maturation; that was the modus operandi under François Millet. It is the only cuvée that does not include whole clusters. It has a clean and precise bouquet with dark cherries, hints of iodine and iris flower. The palate is tensile and light, well focused with an understated, open blackberry and raspberry finish, a touch of black pepper on the aftertaste. Fine.
