Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Nov 18
The 2015 Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses 1er Cru has a very pure bouquet, with a beacon of red berry fruit, neatly integrated with the oak. There is a nobility here, though perhaps it is a little more understated than I would expect considering the vineyard. The palate is beautifully balanced with a fine bead of acidity but perhaps beginning to close up. Yet there is great structure here, and real drive and grip toward the finish. Bon vin - but give it 10 years at least. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 31 Oct 18
Tasted blind, the 2015 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses is quite closed, unfurling with extended aeration to reveal a pretty bouquet of wild berries, dark cherries and potpourri, complemented by some deep bass notes of espresso roast and toasty new oak. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, succulent and richly structured, with a deep and unusually tight-knit core, fine but abundant tannins and a long finish. While wines from this site are often charming out of the blocks, this is an Amoureuses that will demand and reward cellaring.

Tank sample. Lovely heady breadth on the nose. Ripe and broad and lots of depth. Wonderful peacock's tail finish. A marvel. (JR)
