About this Item

2001 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Cras
1 (1 x 1) 750ml

The Domaine was founded in 1924 by Georges Roumier. He began domaine bottling in 1945 and it is now one of the longest-established in domaine bottling in the Côte D’Or. This practice also helped grow the reputation of Domaine Roumier, which is known for producing highly-rated, sought-after wines. The 11.8-hectare domaine is run today by Georges son, Jean-Marie, and grandson, Christophe.

Critics Ratings

‘This really came together in the bottle and is a good deal better and more promising than the cask sample suggested with its elegant, gorgeously pure and expressive red cherry and raspberry fruit nose and wonderfully complex, intense and detailed flavors that possess lovely length and fine finishing minerality.’ - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 91/100 (Oct 2005)

‘Gorgeous aromas of black fruits burst from the glass of the ruby-colored 2001 Chambolle-Musigny Les Cras. Medium-bodied, fleshy, and lush, this ample, fresh, seductive wine bastes the palate with sweet blueberries, violets, and super-ripe blackberries.’ - Pierre Rovani, Wine Advocate, 90/100 (Jun 2003)
