2011 Jacques-Frederic Mugnier, Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru, Les Fuees, Bottle (750ml)

Product Description

"The 2011 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Fuees feels like a step up from the Village Cru with more precision and intensity: raspberry, rose petals, a hint of wild mushroom and damp undergrowth. The palate is very harmonious and feminine with fine tannins encasing the light, almost tart red fruit. It feels very fresh and lively on the finish, but the aftertaste is long and satisfying." NM for WA Nov 2014

"The 2011 Chambolle-Musigny Les Fuées is almost uncharacteristically deep, intense and voluptuous. Sweet red berries, flowers and hard candy all take shape in the glass. In 2011, the Fuées is racy and sensual to the core. All the elements are woven together in a fabric of unusual elegance and pure finesse." AG for VM Mar 2014

"I was delighted to return to the home of Frederic Mugnier in the cluster of houses that make up the village of Chambolle, his perhaps the grandest and most imposing. Those are not adjectives that would describe the man himself, ever congenial and humble when I met him at the domaine. The wines seem “happier,” as banal as that sounds. But they just sang from bottle with freshness, verve, personality and charm – facets of a great Burgundy wine. Most of these cuvees would have been allocated on release, but I am sure some 2011s remain available and they come highly recommended." NM for WA Nov 2014
