2002 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogue, Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru, Les Amoureuses, Bottle (750ml)

"This is exactly like the cask sample with more aromatic complexity than the '02 "1er", displaying a wonderfully seductive, even sexy nose of an impressive array of spices, deep violet notes and soaring red and black pinot fruit. The flavors provide quite a contrast however as they are reserved, almost brooding in character with a powerful, finely detailed and completely linear finish. The purity of expression here is stunning and the finish is akin to a vinous grenade in the mouth with a stellar vibrancy. Flat out wonderful." AM for BH Dec 2005
