2010 Ghislaine Barthod, Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru, Aux Beaux Bruns 1x750ml

Vinous 92+

The 2010 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Aux Beaux-Bruns has a fragrant bouquet that has clearly lost the stemminess that it showed in barrel. The nose offers scents of crushed stone sprinkled over red fruit, damp autumnal undergrowth and just a hint of dark chocolate. The palate is medium-bodied, fresh and vibrant. It really blossoms in the glass with ebullient strawberry and cranberry notes, yet clams in towards the finish that is linear and taut. Therefore, this Chambolle should be afforded another three or four years in bottle. Tasted at Goedhuis’s Burgundy tasting at Vintners Hall. [Neal Martin, 05/07/2019]

Robert Parker 92-94

The 2010 Chambolle-Musigny Les Beaux-Bruns is stellar in this vintage. There is an airiness and inner perfume that gives the 2010 a measure of elegance that is sometimes missing in this wine, given its tendency to be on the big side. All of the elements are beautifully balanced on the suave mid-palate and dark, inviting finish. The sensual side of Chambolle comes through in spades. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2028.
