The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses 1er Cru has a tight, quite backward nose that demands more coaxing than Christophe Roumier's Les Amoureuses , but it is easy to fall for the dark brambly fruit mixed with sous-bois and light tobacco scents. The palate is medium-bodied with edgy tannins, zesty and quite citric, offering desiccated orange peel and blood orange flavors. Fresh and sorbet-like on the finish. This Les Amoureuses should age with style. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting. (Neal Martin, Vinous, January 2022)

Gorgeously deep fruit. Plum, black cherry, some Asian spice, violets. Really sexy with grip and a beautiful long finish

Reddish tawny, dark and murky. Lovely nose. Bing cherry, some wood, some forest floor, some spice and some raspberries. Soft in its impact. Not that flamboyant in the mouth but really good for the vintage.

Typical Tuesday night wine, notes forthcoming...

Fresh tanned leather, rose petals, light cherry, delicate, beautiful, then gone.

Enjoyable at the early stage of maturity . Will revisit in 5-7 years.

More tar than a roofing company but on Valentine's Day, don't forget the roses.
