Fullish, deep nose. Very spicy. Black and red fruit. Exotic spices. Iron minerality, dill, herbs and perfume. Toast, flowers and raspberry. Gets more and more complex with time in glass. Splendid nose!
Medium-fullish palate. Very good concentration and length. Forest floor, iron minerality, oak and raspberry. But also dark fruit. Dense, intense and long. Only detraction is a touch tart finish (the vintage).
Fully ready. Drink now or in five years. (511 views) | | | Tasted by Claret & CdP Gang on 7/2/2022 & rated 92 points: Revisiting a favourite of mine, tight nose, cherries, spices, tree bark, opened up after about an hour, very pretty yet restrained, not as good as my last bottle, could be in awkward phase (733 views) | | | Tasted by Patrik H on 3/28/2020 & rated 93 points: On the nose: Green herbs, strawberry, acetone, dust, mineral
On the palate: Green herbs, mineral, fine acidity
Medium + finish (1428 views) | | | Tasted by Ramberg on 3/28/2020 & rated 95 points: Again, among the finest Les Fuées I have had the pleasure to drink.
My sixth bottle of this truly amazing wine.
Somewhat more closed than previous (in a bit of a phase or "tunnel" perhaps?)
Still, an unmistakable nose that you simply can't go wrong on if you had this wine before.
The pine needles and lovely wild and green herbs along with the dusty minerals and red airy flowers are as present as ever.
The palate a bit more closed down than back in 2016, less peacock tail, but still extremely sexy and complex.
A cooler vintage with airy and perfumed red strawberries, wild strawberries, lovely minerals and spices.
Superb length, silky still very balanced with power and acidity.
With time some first signs of tertiary maturity shows, some wet leaf's, tobacco and tea.
433 bottles made, I have had the pleasurer to drink 6 of these, and I feel so lucky to still have a few more tucked away.
Next bottle in 2025?
Such a great and sexy Chambolle this is!
(93 views) | | | Tasted by Claret & CdP Gang on 2/4/2019 & rated 94 points: Revisiting one of my favorite wines of 2018, CNY reunion dinner, such a delightful nose, so much nuances, red ripe cherries, floral, savoury, spices, beautiful Burg, so refined on the palate, very zen like balance, drank with the 00 Rayas & this Perrot Fuees was better imho
94 (1891 views) | | | Tasted by _water.into.wine_ on 8/3/2018 & rated 93 points: What a great wine. Medium to dark red in the glass and crystal clear. Red fruits (especially strawberries) and mushrooms. Crisp and fresh. So smooth. Good acidity. Very pure. A delight. Drank with Kelvin (1977 views) | | | Tasted by Claret & CdP Gang on 7/22/2018 & rated 94 points: Plot next to Bonnes Mares, what a fantastic nose, cherries & loam, tea leaves & black olives, one of the best Burg nose I’ve had in a while - Grand Cru level, in the mouth very good depth, this is still relatively young, very classy, sneaky long & easily 95 points with more age, bravo! My find of the year!
94+ (1719 views) | | | Tasted by pclin on 1/21/2017 & rated 93 points: Fantastic Chambolle nose, perfumed and intense, on the nose alone, 95 pts! On the palate, this is in semi-shutdown stage, fruits receded showing bright acidity, firm and spicy tannins on mid-palate, some oaks lingering at backend yet to be integrated. Wide spectrum of flavor with good length. Another 3 to 5 years, this maybe spectacular. At the moment, better on the nose than on the palate. Tiny production of only 433 bottles and only one left in the cellar. 92-95 pts. (2625 views) | | | Tasted by Ramberg on 10/15/2016 & rated 95 points: Could not stay away from opening yet another bottle from my cellar.
This is just too good!
So sexy, the nose is to die for.
Pine needles, pine resin, flowers, clean and airy sheets.
Tremendous & glorious wine.
This is all about finesse and transparency.
This is all about Chambolle.
For deeper analyzes, see my previous notes.
This is simply superb! (2284 views) | | | Tasted by Ramberg on 4/16/2015 & rated 95 points: What a wine!
I just love this!
For details, see previous notes on this.
One of my favorite wines out there.

Se noteringar 2015-03-26 (2680 views) | | | Tasted by Ramberg on 3/26/2015 & rated 95 points: I love this wine!
This is such a fine Chambolle.
Been a while since last bottle, and this is just as fine, actually perhaps even better, as I remember.
2008 is again displaying its greatness, as it now comes around the bend, and starting to show its true colors.
This wine has an amazing and complex Chambolle nose, with the most beautiful and sexy clean perfume.
Spicy stems showing on the nose , oozing of lovely minerals, and at the same time being airy and light, with wild flowers, lovely wild strawberries and sweet raspberries.
Palate is no less good, amazingly transparent and clean, with lovely fruit, depth, yet lightness, silky and long, with such an utterly fine minerallity, perfect acidity and almost Grand Cru Musigny overall balance.
A symphony orchestra of scents and taste, peacock tail opens up with multiple layers of complex impressions.
Pure sex!
This is a great Chambolle, that has it all, actually the pure essence of 1:er Cru C-M.
(94 – 97) (2050 views) | | | Tasted by FamilyLarsson on 3/26/2015 & rated 95 points: Det här gillar jag verkligen!
Underbar doft av rosenträdgård, hallon, solmogna jordgubbar och massor av mineral. Otroligt balanserat, elegant, silkigt, rent och tydligt vin med otroligt lång och fin eftersmak. (2599 views) | | | Tasted by pclin on 6/9/2013 & rated 93 points: Gorgeous nose. Perfumed, sweet, and intense. Notes of rose petal, wet earth, spicy stem, and toasty oak. Sweet and smooth on entry, even better balance than Faiveley Les Fuees 08' tasted alongside, little hard edges. Low acidity level atypical of this vintage. Label indicated 13% alcohol with no trace of it. However, this does not have the length of Faiveley on the first day. Interestingly, this puts on more weight on 2nd day with better balance than Faiveley, seems to have softer and round tannins throughout. Edges out Faiveley Fuees but more costly too. Tiny production of 433 bottles and 3 magnums. 92-94 pts. (3048 views) | | | Tasted by St Paul on 5/4/2012 & rated 94 points: Minerals, raspberry, wild strawberry. Sweet red fruit. Elegant. Very sexy wine. Long. A beauty. (2658 views) | | | Tasted by Ramberg on 5/4/2012 & rated 95 points: Consistent with my previous note.
I really like this wine allot!
It’s very complex, still straight forward and so well composed.
A beauty!
Had it blind together with Mugnier – 06 and Jadot 05 from the same vineyard, and this was clearly the best of the three to me. (3010 views) | | | Tasted by Ramberg on 4/6/2012 & rated 95 points: What a great bottle of Chambolle!
A truly great wine!
The fruit is so clean and nice, with great minerals, outstanding complexity and a heavenly velvety, smooth taste that just lasts forever.
Enough backbone to last for a long time, and will surely develop even more complexity and even better taste, but this is open for business already.
It’s on the brink to 96 points already = Extraordinary, and I’m sure it will reach there!
I can only agree and emphasize what Tavastgatan writes.
A perfect example of Chambolle at its best!
Way to go!
I need more of this.
I'm in love! (3062 views) | | | Tasted by Tavastgatan on 10/1/2010 & rated 95 points: Chambolle at its best. It is so smooth and velvety, just like the interior of a fine woman's vagina. Plenty of lovely fruit, minerals and gorgeous spice notes. Every Burgundy lover should try this. (3330 views) |

U.S. Importer (Addt'l Info)Pinot Noir Varietal character (Appellation America) | Varietal article (Wikipedia)
Pinot Noir is the Noble red grape of Burgundy, capable of ripening in a cooler climate, which Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot will not reliably do. It is unpredictable and difficult both to grow and to vinify, but results in some of the finest reds in the world. It is believed to have been selected from wild vines two thousand years ago. It is also used in the production of champagne. In fact, more Pinot Noir goes into Champagne than is used in all of the Cote d'Or! It is also grown in Alsace, Jura, Germany, the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Romania, Switzerland, Austria, Croatia, Serbia, Italy, and so forth, with varying degrees of success.
Pinot Noir is one of the world's most prestigious grapes. It is very difficult to grow and thrives well in France, especially in Champagne and Burgundy. Pinot Noir thrives less in hot areas, is picky on soil, and deserves some oak storage.
Pinot Noir, or Blauburgunder / Spätburgunder in German, is a blue grapevine - and, as the German name suggests, the grape comes originally from Burgundy in France.
The grape, which thrives in calcareous soils, is used primarily for the production of red wine, and it is widely regarded as producing some of the best wines in the world. The wine style is often medium-bodied with high fruit acidity and soft tannins. It can be quite peculiar in fragrance and taste, and not least in structure - which may be why it is referred to as "The Grapes Ballerina".
Pinot Noir is also an important ingredient in sparkling wines, not least in champagne since it is fruity, has good acidity and contains relatively little tannins.
The grape is considered quite demanding to grow. The class itself consists of tightly packed grapes, which makes it more sensitive to rot and other diseases.
Pinot Noir changes quite easily and is genetically unstable. It buds and matures early which results in it often being well ripened. Climate is important for this type of grape. It likes best in cool climates - in warm climates the wines can be relaxed and slightly pickled.
In cooler climates, the wine can get a hint of cabbage and wet leaves, while in slightly warmer regions we often find notes of red berries (cherries, strawberries, raspberries, currants), roses and slightly green notes when the wine is young. With age, more complex aromas of forest floor, fungi and meat emerge.
In Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Hungary, it often produces light wines with less character. However, it has produced very good results in California, Oregon and New Zealand.
With its soft tannins and delicate aroma, it is excellent for white fish, chicken and light meat. For the stored wines you can serve small game. Classic duck breast is a matter of course, a Boeuf Burgundy and Pinot Noir are pure happiness.
Pinot Noir loses quality by over-harvesting.
Pinot Noir is prone to diseases, especially rot and mildew. Viruses cause major problems especially in Burgundy.
Pinot Noir are large round grapes with thin skins. Relatively high in alcohol content. Medium rich tannins and good with acid.
As a young person, Pinot Noir has a distinctly fruity character such as raspberries, cherries and strawberries.
A mature Pinot Noir, the taste is different. Cherry goes into plum and prune flavors. It smells of rotten leaves, coffee, moist forest floor and animal wine. This must be experienced.
In warm climates you find boiled plum, some rustic, little acid.
If the grapes are over-grown, the wine will be thin, with little color and flavor.Vieilles Vignes Old Vine/Vieilles Vignes (Wikipedia)Les Fuées On weinlagen-infoFrance Vins de France (Office National Interprofessionnel des Vins ) | Pages Vins, Directory of French Winegrowers | French Wine (Wikipedia)

2022 harvest: idealwine.info | wine-searcher.comBurgundy Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)
Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
Côte de Nuits on weinlagen.infoChambolle-Musigny 1er CruChambolle-Musigny is one of the smallest appellations of the Côte de Nuits, although given the tiny, fragmented nature of Burgundy vineyards, it manages to fit two exceptional Grand Crus (Bonnes Mares and Le Musigny) and a couple of dozen Premieres Crus. These wines are known for delicacy and tend to be light in body, but concentrated and with fragrent bouquets. The critic Robert M. Parker Jr. quotes French poet Gaston Roupnel as likening the region's wines to "silk and lace."
----
Di Giancarlo marino: comunque. Les Noirottes è un cru situato quasi al centro di Chambolle, subito ad est di Bonnes Mares, ed è confinante tra gli altri con i 1er cru Les Baudes (segnalo quello di H. Lignier), Les Sentieres (segnalo quello di R. Groffier), e aux Beaux Bruns (molto citato dalla stampa quello di D. Mortet, io preferisco quello di Ghislaine Barthod). Pur essendo ben situato, questo 1er cru non mi risulta aver mai dato vini di particolare pregio. Per chi ama e cerca lo "spirito" vero di Chambolle, oltre allo scontato Les Amoureuses (notevoli quelli di De Vogue, Roumier, Groffier, Amiot-Servelle...) ed a quelli già citati, consiglio Les Cras di G. Roumier e Ghislaine Barthod, Derrier la Grange di Amiot-Servelle, Haut Doix di Groffier. Volendo scegliere tra i Village, sono tutti buoni quelli di Groffier, Ghislaine Barthod e Roumier, produttori che eccellono regolarmente anche nelle denominazioni minori. Volendo parlare di Chambolle, occorrerà prima o poi dire qualcosa anche dei grand cru: la mia passione per i Bonnes Mares è nota ai miei amichetti sciagattati.
