2008 Domaine G. Roumier / Christophe Roumier Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses
6/13/2018 - Dubie Likes this wine: 99 Points
Drunk at Le Millesime in Chambolle, this bottle travelled about 80 yards directly from the domaine's cellar. A mesmerizing bottle, drunk alongside 1988 Amoureuses, 1983 Musigny and 2006 Musigny. All were in exceptional condition, but this was my favorite. I don't quite know how to say it, other than that it touched me and moved me. Only once before had I felt such an emotion - in 2010 drinking a 1989 Romanee-Conti in magnum, also straight from the cellar.

Semi blind v 1969 LHBB and 1989 HBB... and other exceptional wines. This was WOTN for me. Disalarmingly light colour, like a young sauv. blanc. Complex nose of pink and citrus fruits, not cat pee. Tight and penetrating, linear in the front of the mouth with an unbelievably explosive, lateral back of the mouth. Never felt anything like this before. Frankly not sure why I'm not awarding this an even higher rating. My unanswered question is at what level of a Burgundy chardonnay would need to be paired to win against this bottle.

Perfect age to open the bottle. I was nervous it would be too soon, but the wine is perfectly integrated between acidity, fruit and tannins. A classic CDG if opened now. I opened 90' before drinking.
