2011 Jacques-Frederic Mugnier, Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru, Les Fuees, Bottle (750ml)
Product Description
"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 92Pts for VM Mar 2014
"The Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Fuées 2011 has a very fragrant bouquet with tart red cherries, fresh strawberry and fine minerality. There is still a touch of woodiness coming through, although that will soon be subsumed. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, with a touch of tangy marmalade that concludes a slightly smudged finish that should be better considering the aromatics, but it does gain more and more precision with time." NM for TWA Nov 2014
Neal Martin for RobertParker.com writes, "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." Published: Oct 30, 2013
