"Les Amoureuses" is located just below the prestigious Musigny Grand Cru parcel. One might also evoke the beauty of the site, which overlooks the Petits Vougeots and Clos de Vougeot, and liken this parcel to a balcony where, in famous plays, enamored women are captivated by the declarations of their suitors.
The wine’s vibrant robe, a garnet red with violet reflections, lights up the glass. The nose, with remarkable expressiveness, reveals a complex bouquet of ripe fruits such as raspberry, enhanced by spices and delicate toasted and smoky notes. On the palate, this wine stands out for its finesse and elegance, offering aromas of wild fruits like blackberries, complemented by spices and subtle oak. Its length on the palate is exceptional.
James Suckling 96: At once deeply structured and mysterious but also floral and enticing, this is a stunning expression of one of Burgundy’s most famous premier cru sites. Incredibly fine red-berry and sour-cherry flavors are wrapped around the very elegant, tannic core. Extremely long finish. From organically grown grapes. Matured in a mix of new oak barriques and once-used barriques. Drink or hold.
