2015 Francois Bertheau Chambolle Amoureuses
Secondary Description
As silky as you can get. Ultra elegant but also energy and drive. I wish I knew enough about winemaking to be able to work out how Francois gets these pale, delicate creations to have so much presence and oomph with their zest for life. In this 2015 Francois Bertheau Amoureuses he has captured the very spirit of Chambolle. The finish comes slowly and lasts a very long time, the whole experience is one of precision and langorous harmony . (CW 09/11/16)

Allen Meadows
As it almost always is, this is the spiciest and most elegant wine in the range with its expressive and ripe yet cool nose of sandalwood, spice, violet, anise and a hint of Asian-style tea. The sleek, refined and pure medium weight flavors exude a fine bead of minerality onto the harmonious and classy finale. In contrast to the prior wines, this would best be allowed at least 5-ish years of cellar time first. 91-93 points
