Tasting notes
Reviewed by: William Kelley
The 2023 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses is terrific, wafting from the glass with aromas of raspberries and cherries mingled with rose petals and blood orange. Medium to full-bodied, with a deep, cool core of fruit, suave tannins and a long, perfumed finish, this is well worth seeking out.

The 2023 Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses 1er Cru is a more tightly wound Les Petit-Monts, but it unfolds with touches of dark berry fruit, cola and wilted rose petal, with more blue fruit surfacing with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent ripe tannins. Some wood tannins are evident but will be subsumed with time. This is a Les Amoureuses that will require time, with light peppery notes toward the rounded, quite persistent finish.
