Cask Sample. Razor-sharp aromas on this Les Amoureeses with wonderfully fruit of darker cherry and raspberry. Lovely spicy tone which is rather towards slightly exotic spices. Medium to medium + full-bodied wine that is really clean and precise. Fabulous fruit of plum, raspberry and this exotic spice tone. Nice acidity and good tannins. Long and seductive finish with light licorice. Really charming wine. 95 points.

Same deep ruby colour. A complex, highly spicy nose speaks of cool dark berry, dairy products, a nuance of veg and violet. Incredible tension and length. 93+

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Cellar Visit and Tasting (Chambolle-Musigny): An educational visit with François Millet. A wet 2018 spring was followed by a hot summer summer and drought. An August 30th harvest was the earliest at Vogüé since 1895! Everything was ripe - flesh, seeds and skin. The wine is 50-75% done with ML, based on cuvee, but there is so little malic acid that it is barely apparent. François says this is a vintage that truly expresses summer.
Barrel tasting at the domaine. 80-90% ML complete. Stunning red and black berry aromas with fully savory spice. Similar flavor profile with incredible brightness and length. Also incredibly dark, but so texturally exciting with silky tannins and great length. Wow, 96-97 point potential.
