Robert Groffier Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses Premier Cru 2021

It must be impossible to praise Groffier's wines in a way that hasn't been done before. In every recent vintage, this Domaine has produced complex, delicious, lushly textured wines that are immediately appealing but also have the balance to improve for many years. Chambolle-Musigny represents the charm of the Cote de Nuits district of Burgundy. But you'll find that term mainly about the vineyards in its southern stretches, which border Clos Vougeot: the Grand Cru of Le Musingy and, in part, its neighbouring and most exceptional Premier Cru, Les Amoureuses. 

Les Amoureses is an elegant, floral wine and mineral at the same time, offering a very dense ruby colour with effusive aromas of flowers, sandalwood, black currant and blackberry allied to a delicate frame. The nose is complex and refined, opening with notes of red fruits such as light raspberry or cherry. 

On the palate, it gradually unfolds and reveals its incomparable texture. The aromatic richness is developed on a very long finish.
