Domaine Ghislaine Barthod Chambolle Musigny les Chatelots 2006

wa89-90

BN#261574

Domaine Ghislaine Barthod

The wines of Chambolle are noted for their finesse and delicacy.

Wine Advocate

Barthod's 2006 Chambolle-Musigny Les Chatelots – last tasted from a sample of barrels – leads with fresh red raspberry, wreathed in subtle, hard-to-identify floral perfume. Flatteringly refined in texture and generously juicy, it combines meat broth, chalk, and salt undertones for another truly lip-smacking performance, finishing with transparency and lift. Even a sample from new barrel was uniformly and lusciously fruit and mineral dominated, although Barthod indicated that this cru was late to digest its wood. This should be delightful over the next 4-6 years. 89-90+

Score: 89-90. —David Schildknecht, December 2009.
