  (Leroy Chambolle-Musigny Les Fermiers) Deep colour. The nose starts rather closed and meaty, only widening a little over its alloted time in the glass though the nose did eventually become a little more fruit-driven. Versus the Narbantons, this seems to have a better balance and seems less obviously extracted, though the first impression is of a shorter finish. The oak is a little less dominant and slowly the finish seems to open out and become a little creamy. This wine is quite a bit more expensive than de Vogüés young vines Musigny - (i.e. the Chambolle premier cru) and Mugnier and Drouhin’s Musignys - I know where my cash would be.
