Tasting notes
The 2014 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Derrière La Grange has quite a complex bouquet: red berry fruit here, woodland scents, a touch of field mushroom and gravel. It is a very absorbing set of aromatics that you keep nosing and nosing. The palate is very well balanced with vibrant red berry fruit, beautifully interwoven oak, fine tannin and wonderful poise towards the saline finish. This is a consummate Chambolle-Musigny destined to give a lot of pleasure and it will be delicious from start to finish, given 2-3 years in bottle.

The 2014 Chambolle-Musigny Derrière La Grange 1er Cru included 22% whole bunches at the time. It's a bit rustic on the nose but has more fruit presence than some other Côte de Nuits reds. There are scents of mulberry, sage, curry leaf and cumin. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly rustic tannins and attenuates somewhat towards the finish. Fine acidity, lightly spiced, but a little conservative and dry. Drink over the next 5 to 6 years.
