Chambolle Musigny Les Gruenchers•2022

Silky yet powerful, the 2022 Domaine Gilbert et Christine Felettig Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Gruenchers shows vivid red and dark berry fruit layered with lifted florals, spice and a touch of toasty oak from its whole-bunch and new-barrel élevage. The palate is medium to full-bodied and fleshy, its generous core of fruit currently cloaking firm but refined tannins, finishing long and mouthwatering with a faintly salty snap. This is a structured, modern-styled Chambolle that promises considerably more nuance once the wood fully integrates in bottle.
