Wine Advocate April, 2007

The 2005 Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses displays sweet aromas of peony, ripe black raspberry and cassis. A tender palate impression of subtle creaminess, ultra-refined tannins, insistent freshness of fruit, and spice and chalk nuances leads to a finish of startling clarity and purity, with evocative florality, sumptuous ripeness and ineffable mineral shadings.

Outstanding. As one would expect, this is distinctly more elegant and refined with an airy, pure and intensely spicy black fruit nose that carries the same lovely floral note while merging seamlessly into the layered, textured and beautifully detailed flavors that possess a velvety character on the focused, mineral infused and powerful finish that is stunningly long. This saturates the palate with extract of black raspberry, which again completely buffers the sense of underlying structure though this is clearly built to age. Sheer class. Drink: 2015+
