2017 Felettig Chambolle-Musigny VV

Vieilles Vignes
A lovely, limpid purple. Quite full for a Chambolle, dark and intense, serious, silky fruit and a brooding, formidable structure. Still closed, but the silky integration shows this is more serious than its level. From a parcel of old vines, and passed through 30% new oak. Classy dark Burgundy that needs a bit of time to come roind - or give it a spin in the decanter. (NT 20/02/19)

Neal Martin

The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Vieilles Vignes comes from vines between 40 and 60 years of age, spread over three hectares. It has a pure, harmonious bouquet of lifted dark cherries and iodine aromas that are very well defined. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, crisp acidity and good substance, and the 30% new oak is deftly interwoven on the long, graphite-tinged finish. Do not overlook this. One of the best from the domaine.91-93 points
