Domaine Ghislaine Barthod - Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru 'Aux Beaux Bruns' - 2021

The 2021 Chambolle-Musigny Aux Beaux Bruns 1er Cru has an attractive nose, a mélange of red and black fruit, sous-bois, crushed stone and rose petals. It displays more vigour than the Chambolle-Charmes. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy red cherry and strawberry fruit, desiccated orange peel and white pepper. Not complex yet it demonstrates more length than some of the other cuvées. 91-93 Points Neal Martin, Vinous.com A hint of crushed leaf lurks in the background of the cool aromas of red and blue pinot fruit and discreet earth wisps. The succulent and delicious medium-bodied flavors possess a beguiling energy that also suffuses the balanced and lingering finish that could also use a bit more depth. 90-92 Points Allen Meadows, Burghound
