Product Description

Allen Meadows for BurgHound writes, "A more deeply pitched and noticeably riper nose is comprised by notes of poached plum, newly turned earth and a floral top note. The exceptionally rich and very generously proportioned medium-bodied flavors possess a suave mid-palate mouthfeel that contrasts moderately with the lingering finale that is both slightly austere and rustic."

William Kelley for RobertParker.com writes, "Christophe Roumier and I had been star-crossed in recent years, missing our 2021 rendezvous, thanks to a COVID-19 case, and our 2022 appointment due to a family emergency, so it was good to catch up with him this winter to taste his embryonic 2022s and bottled 2021s in Chambolle-Musigny. Despite producing a number of hulking, muscular vintages in the last few years, Roumier remains faithful to an elegant vision of red Burgundy, and he's quite candid about preferring his 2017s to his 2018s, and his 2021s to his 2020s. So it's all the more satisfying that, as he nears retirement, he has produced a brilliant back-to-back duo in 2021 and 2022, the latter ranging from 13.2 to 13.7% alcohol. This tasting reminded me just how great these wines can be and why they were such an integral part of why I fell in love with Burgundy as a graduate student. We also took the opportunity to talk about the technical evolutions at this address over the last two decades, identifying some of the key steps: fewer punch-downs since 1999; in 2001, the abandonment of extraction enzymes; in 2003, the first extensive retention of whole brunches in vindication; and after 2006, the banishment of Tonnellerie Rémond from the barrel cellar."
