Composed of 53% Merlot

nicely balanced wine whose slightly fiery but persistent finish features rather fine tannins and good grip

(25% whole cluster)

allowing the cassis and morello cherry to take centre stage

This could use better depth though it’s certainly pretty

Ghislaine Barthod, Chambolle-Musigny Les Noirots Vintage:2020 Composed of 53% Merlot(from a . 14 ha parcel). Once again firm reduction flattens the underlying fruit at present. Otherwise there is impressive volume and power to the broad shouldered flavors that possess a velvety mid palate that contrasts considerably with the robust and borderline rustic finale that is supported by very firm tannins. This offers fine development potential but its not likely to make for especially interesting early drinking.
