With their 1.2ha of Les Amoureuses, the Groffiers are the biggest owners of this celebrated premier cru, ahead of Joseph Drouhin. Showing subtle reduction in barrel, this is lighter, paler and more ethereal than the 2016, but not far behind it in terms of quality. With 50% whole bunches and 33% new wood, it’s focussed, fine and very subtle, with aromatic spices and wild strawberry sweetness.

Varietal

Pinot Noir

Regularly described as being the grape varietal responsible for producing the world's most romantic wines, Pinot Noir has long been associated with elegance and a broad range of flavors The name means 'black pine' in French, and this is due to the fact that the fruit of this particular varietal is especially dark in color, and hangs in a conical shape, like that of a pine cone. Despite being grown today in almost every wine producing country, Pinot Noir is a notoriously difficult grape variety to cultivate. This is because it is especially susceptible to various forms of mold and mildew, and thrives best in steady, cooler climates. However, the quality of the fruit has ensured that wineries and vintners have persevered with the varietal, and new technologies and methods have overcome many of the problems it presents. Alongside this, the wide popularity and enthusiasm for this grape has ensured it will remain a firm favorite amongst wine drinkers for many years to come.

90-92 The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses 1er Cru feels quite subdued on this day, missing the flamboyance and sensuality that normally one seeks from this vineyard. The palate is more promising with succulent ripe black cherries, boysenberry jam and a sprinkled of sea salt, certainly well balanced with plenty of finesse towards the persistent finish. Very fine, though maybe I expected more?
