Domaine François Legros Les Noirots Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru 2022

The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Les Noirots 1er Cru, which had been bottled and comes from a single parcel of 70-year-old vines, has an attractive bouquet with cranberries, raspberries, touches of black olive and marine scents, with hints of white flower emerging with time. The palate is sweet and quite candied on the entry, fleshy but with a fine structure that segues into a spicy, white pepper-tinged finish. Like a mini-Bonnes Mares! Drinking window: 2026-2042. Score – 92. (Neal Martin, vinous.com, Jan. 11, 2024)
