Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru Les Cras - Domaine Georges & Christophe Roumier 2020
The domain
Symbol of a quality wine if ever there was one, the domain of Christophe Roumier (descendant of Georges Roumier) is classified among the best, if not the best of the Côte de Nuits vineyard, in the Côte d'Or department. Located in Chambolle-Musigny, near Corton, it covers almost 12 hectares, producing exclusively red wines (except for the Grand Cru Corton-Charlemagne, which is a white). 40,000 bottles are produced each year on the estate, which allows this wine to remain relatively rare. At VinsGrandsCrus you will find a wide choice of these exceptional wines thanks to the good relationships we maintain with many red wine lovers. This means that despite its rarity it is still possible to acquire it.
The wines of Domaine de Roumier offer great diversity when tasting, they prove to be both powerful and fine wines depending on your choice. A Musigny, for example, will be very calm, while a Chambolle Combottes will be much more lively. Finally, note that the entire production has the characteristic of a grape variety with rather fruity touches.

Tasting: The Chambolle-Musigny Les Cras 1er Cru 2020 presents an almost flinty bouquet with delicate scents of faded rose petals which gradually unfold in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied, with the 65% whole bunch barely detectable. Very consistent, fine tannins, very saline on the finish with shucked oyster shells, one of the characteristic notes of this limestone-rich vineyard. Carved with a chisel on the finish. Excellent. -Niel Martin |
