2021 Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru Amoureuses Georges Roumier, Burgund (0,75l)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2021 Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru Amoureuses, Georges Roumier

Roumier produced only four barrels of the 2021 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses, vinifying it with some three-quarters whole bunch. Soaring from the glass with scents of raspberries, potpourri, Indian spices, incense and red plums, it's full-bodied, ample and suave, with a beautifully perfumed, enveloping core of pure, vibrant fruit, its mid-palate plenitude rendering its melting structuring tannins almost imperceptible. - William Kelley, Jan. 24

Allen Meadows' Burghound - 2021 Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru Amoureuses, Georges Roumier

This is arguably the most elegant wine in the range with its wonderfully spicy and floral-suffused aromas of exotic tea, rose petal, star anise and cool essence of red currant. As is usually the case, the middleweight flavors are at once finer and more mineral-driven than those of the Bonnes Mares if markedly less powerful, all wrapped in an equally persistent finish that offers flat out stunning complexity. This is both classy and sophisticated and a wine that should also repay extended keeping. - Allen Meadows, Jan. 2024
