2010 Ghislaine Barthod, Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru, Les Baudes 1x750ml

Vinous 92-94+

The 2010 Chambolle-Musigny Les Baudes shows the more masculine, virile side of Chambolle in its dark fruit, menthol and spices. Deep layers of fruit continue to unfold as the wine sits in the glass, all supported by firm yet well-integrated tannins. A long, impeccable finish rounds out this stellar Chambolle. In 2010 the Baudes is flat-out great. Baudes lies just below Bonnes-Mares and a certain similarity to the wines from that great side is evident in the structural profile.

Anticipated maturity: 2020-2030
