Jacques Frederic Mugnier Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru Amoureuses 2006 Portugal A brooding and intensely earthy

A brooding and intensely earthy nose is comprised by notes of both red and dark berries that are trimmed in soft spice and sauvage hints

youthfully austere and beautifully long finish

There are sweet cherry aromas

In spite of this

Jacques Frederic Mugnier Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru Amoureuses 2006 Portugal A brooding and intensely earthyThis terrific effort has evolved beautifully and still closely resembles my original tasting note from 2008 with its knockout nose that is classic Amoureuses as it combines seductive spice and a ripe blend of red, black and blue fruit aromas that are displaying hints of maturity. There is good richness and a lovely minerality to the naturally sweet, fresh and energetic medium full flavors that are supple, classy, balanced and beautifully persistent.
