Georges Roumier, Chambolle Musigny Les Cras 2009

The Chambolle Les Cras 2009 is still very very youthful, but starting to show more Chambolle character and minerality. The bouquet is still very much primary aromas, with red berry fruit – but is starting to show a nice spicy Chambolle minerality. The fruit in the nose is finely balanced with some fresh elements of forest berries, and some more hot liquorice notes. The palate is shaping up beautifully like many other 09s … it’s quite focused and the cooler red notes in the fruit is taking over. A classic Les Cras … quite lovely now – but will no doubt be a true beauty after 15 years of cellaring.
