Boursot Chambolle-Musigny 1er cru “Fuées” 2018

Located next to the famous Grand Cru “Bonnes Mares,” Chambolle 1er “Fuées” produces wines showing what Allen Meadows calls “a touch of Morey-St-Denis wildness.” Boursot’s vines here are 75 years old.

Fuées marries power and gracefulness in a way that only a Chambolle vineyard can, and the 2018 is magnificent. The nose shows an extraordinary depth of perfume, cassis, violets, and gingerbread. The mouth is huge and intense. In a few years we expect it to be refined, elegant, ethereal, and smooth.
