2002 Domaine Robert Groffier Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru
After this disappointing showing of the 01 Amoureuses, we decided to pop this '02 that someone brought as a bonus bottle. A good deal of funky red fruit on the nose with some dark spice and minerality. A good palate, but not as good as expected. Not a fantastic night for Amoureuses.

2001 Domaine Robert Groffier Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru
Served Blind. Dark red cherry and cranberry on the nose with a ton of minerality. Good palate, but perhaps a bit lean. Very surprised when I found out this was the Amoureuses in the flight. Other bottles I've had of this have been much better.

2005 Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Feusselottes
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru
Served Blind. Very primary dark red fruits. Tons of minerality with good fruit on the palate, but I have a feeling its not showing all that it can be. Really love the mineral backbone and acidity. Great stuff.
