Tasting notes
Georges Roumier's Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses 2001 is a red wine made entirely from Pinot Noir in the Burgundy region. This particular vintage is noted by Christophe Roumier, the young winemaker, as the most characteristic of Les Amoureuses around that era, capturing the elegance and complexity that Chambolle-Musigny is known for.
In Volume 32 of 'Drops of God', this wine is introduced by Fujieda as part of the first Apostle. Christophe Roumier's mention of this vintage being a standout among its peers really left an impression, highlighting its unique character and allure.
When poured, the wine exhibits a garnet hue with a hint of brick, indicating its maturity. Aromas of violets, dark cherries, and a touch of sous-bois emerge, creating a complex bouquet. On the palate, it reveals silky tannins and lively acidity, with a pronounced fruitiness that is both elegant and persistent.
The finish is long and graceful, leaving an enduring impression. It's best enjoyed without decanting, allowing each sip to tell the story of Burgundy's love affair. If you're looking to open a bottle that embodies romance, this is it.
