2021 Maxime Cheurlin Noellat Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Feusselottes

France / Burgundy / Cote de Nuits / Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru Rouge
 
Maxime Cheurlin Noëllat Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Feusselottes.
 
A seductive and silky Chambolle-Musigny from the young and talented Maxime Cheurlin Noëllat. The 1er Cru Les Feusselottes is known for its delicate finesse and perfumed elegance, and the 2022 vintage enhances these qualities with an almost radiant freshness and depth.
 
The nose is greeted with intense aromas of red roses, violet, and ripe raspberries, complemented by subtle spicy hints, forest floor, and a finely integrated touch of oak. The taste is silky smooth and precise, with a beautiful balance between juicy fruit, lively acidity, and fine, chalky tannins. The finish is long, refined, and lightly spiced, with floral notes that give the wine an almost weightless elegance.
 
Les Feusselottes is a sizeable 1er Cru climat of Chambolle-Musigny located around the graveyard just outside the village itself.
It lies in the center of the appellation, roughly equidistant between the two Grand Cru sites of Bonnes-Mares to the north and Musigny to the south. The vineyard is planted entirely to Pinot Noir.
