Tasting notes
The 2010 Chambolle-Musigny Village initially outclasses the 2009 with great delineation. Still, it never fully kicks on in the glass, and eventually, some of that burst of dark berry fruit falls away. The palate is very well defined and precise, a little drier and grittier than the 2009; compelling at first, but it just tapers away a little towards the finish. It is a lovely Chambolle though it may be that the previous vintage has the upper hand.

Bright medium red. Deep aromas and flavors of black raspberry, cranberry, pomegranate, mocha and roast coffee, plus a whiff of animal fur. Fine-grained, sappy and alive, and almost shockingly expressive today. Finishes very long and minerally, with terrific lift and palate coverage. An outstanding village wine that offers very good aging potential.
The 2010 Chambolle-Musigny is a highly attractive wine laced with expressive red berries, flowers and spices. Delicate and understated on the palate, the Chambolle impresses for its striking inner perfume and class. The Chambolle is made from parcels in La Combe d'Orveau and Les Plantes that are vinified separately.
Medium red. Tangy aromas and flavors of musky raspberry and dark chocolate. Nicely fleshy in the mid-palate, but with a firm spine of acidity and minerality giving cut and lift to the wine. Finishes persistent and firm, with lovely cut.
