Michel Gros Chambolle-Musigny 2016

Michel Gros’s 2016 Chambolle-Musigny is smooth, elegant, and sleek. Now six years on from the harvest, this has begun to shed its youthful awkwardness, and has matured into a seriously impressive wine. Look for notes of plum, licorice, cherry and stones; the mouth is dense and firm but with velvety texture and a clean, very precise finish.

Burghound calls this wine “outstanding” with “refined tannins” and “impressively persistent finish,” concluding “a lovely Chambolle villages worth checking out.”
