Arnoux Lachaux Chambolle Musigny AC – 2013

This is Burgundy as you want all Burgundy to be, but are so often disappointed. Delicate, pure, fragrant and perfumed. Fine, fresh, elegant and yet so complex at the same time. The gentle red cherry, raspberry and violet flavours grow effortlessly in the palate – that this is only a “village” level wine I find quite amazing. This Domaine is a real star of the future, I’m convinced.

“Not surprisingly this is aromatically more elegant with its cool and pure aromas of essence of red berries and lilac scents. The round and seductively textured medium weight flavours exude a fine bead of minerality on the appealingly detailed, sappy and punchy finish. This is also quite refreshing and utterly delicious.” Allen Meadows.
