94 WA. "A haunting bouquet of iris and heliotrope; ripe, fresh red raspberry and cherry along with their spirituous proxies; and brown spices fills the nose from Roumier's 2006 Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses, which offers a similarly ravishing palate display, silken in texture and underlain by metaphorically cool chalkiness and rich meat stock. The finish here preserves white-wine like clarity to floral and mineral nuances yet with powerful resonance, as well as buoyancy and sheer refreshment." Wine Advocate #186, Dec 2009 |
