Critics Ratings
'The 2011 Chambolle-Musigny is a pretty, accessible wine, but today I get the impression the 2011 may be headed for a period of dormancy. The relaxed, easygoing personality of the vintage is in evidence, but the fruit isn't as generous or resonant as it was a years ago. I have seen the villages blossom with few years of bottle age, though, so I would give the 2011 time in bottle.' - Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 91/100 (Mar 2014)
'The 2011 Chambolle-Musigny Village has a fragrant, voluminous bouquet with plush red cherries intermingling with black currant and a touch of cassis. The palate is sweet on the entry with pure black cherry and cassis fruit. The tannins are fine and underpin a linear Chambolle-Musigny: quite conservative in style with sappy black fruit defining the finish. Drink now-2018.' - Neal Martin, Wine Advocate (Aug 2013)
'Deep crimson - deeper than most. Real savour on the nose. On the palate still rather simple though there is a lot of matière here. Wait!' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16.5+/20 (Nov 2012)
