There’s village Burgundy and then there’s Roumier Chambolle-Musigny! 2016 is in a perfect spot, ushering in secondary complexity at age nine in a captivating perfume synonymous with the Domaine, and a structured, but silky mineral inflicted palate with fine grained tannins. Roumier always hits 🫰🏻 — a month ago
Ruby red with aromas of red fruits, blackberries, and forest aromas. Tartness, raspberry, and spice notes on the bud. A pretty good 100% Cab Franc. — 19 days ago
2014 vintage holding up extremely well. Smooth balanced from front to finish of red fruit and spice. — 2 months ago
We bought when put to market and stored all these years. Truly good stuff. Complex and dense in spades. If one thing, mrs Barthod does very masculine wines we think. They tend to lack the delicate side of Chambolle. — a month ago
Intense and pretty with a bit of VA on the nose at first that blows off. Very pure fruit but still young and quite gnarly. Serious stuff, dark and intense. Will this ever dance lightly? I don’t know… impressive but less drinkable now that the 2000 alongside. — 15 hours ago
The 2000 Musigny pours a ruby color with a transparent core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, this is an absolute smoke show with the most beautiful, delineated notes of fresh, ripe red fruits: strawberry, raspberry, licorice, red flowers, sous bois and gentle cool and warm spices. This beauty effortlessly dances across the palate, presenting dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish lasts an eternity. The texture is like finest mulberry silk. It’s weightless and yet, there was an undeniable richness. Utterly brilliant and for me, a core memory wine. Not that this comes as any surprise, but it was fabulous with the canard au vin rouge. Drink now through 2040. — 2 months ago
