2002 Vincent Girardin Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses
13.5% alc.. Imported by Vineyard
Brands, Inc., Birmingham, Alabama.
·
Dark garnet color in the glass. I have extensive notes on this wine.
Engaging aromas of black cherry, Asian spices, undergrowth, rose petal, toasty oak and charcoal grill. Broad-
shouldered and powerful, with mid weight plus flavors of blackberry, cassis, and dark chocolate. There is a
noticeable savory and earthy side to this wine as well. Highly flavorful and beautifully balanced with a creamy
mouth feel, although the finishing length did not quite match up to several other wines in this review session.
That said, this was a highly nuanced wine that showed the more gutsy side of this vineyard. Drink now-2025.
Score: Exceptional.
