Tasting Notes and Scores

93 AG

The 2009 Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses is a bit unusual for this site. The fruit shows more depth, concentration and overt richness than most wines from this vineyard. The signature perfume emerges with time, but this remains a wine essentially built on an intense core of fruit. Groffier used 10% stems here. The finish shows a little heat, which is the only thing that keeps the score from going higher.

Good full red. Inviting, slightly liqueur-like aromas of red fruits, flowers, spices, roasted herbs, burnt sugar, licorice and pepper. Broad and silky-sweet in the mouth, with spice and pepper treble notes giving the wine a surprisingly light touch for such a large-scaled Amoureuses. Finishes with dusty tannins and classic dryness.
