Aroma: The nose of this Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru "Les Amoureuses" features redcurrant and strawberry scents, which evolve toward to more complex aromas of figs and leather.
Palate: Extremely elegant, beautifully structured and there is good balance between the soft, silky tannins and well-integrated, supple oak.
Food Pairings: Great with finely-cooked red meats and delicate cheeses.

The 2016 Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru Amoureuses was picked on 25 September and includes 30% whole bunch fruit, matured in 35% new oak. For an Amoureuses, it has an understated bouquet, clean and pure but maybe just missing the horsepower and the intensity of its peers. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, quite linear and tensile with just the right amount of salinity, though I would be seeking more precision toward the finish. While it is missing the panache of the 2015, it is a fine Amoureuses that should age with style.
