🏰news | features + short tasting note IN ENGLISH 【Ghislaine Barthod's Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Cras 2005 is a quintessential Premier Cru Burgundy, celebrated for its silky texture, precise minerality, and exceptional aging potential.】 The 2005 Burgundy vintage was marked by generous ripeness and a balanced structure, ideal for wines destined for aging. Sourced from clay-limestone soils rich in white marls, this wine gains a chalky minerality and characteristic tension. Traditional vinification methods, measured extraction, and barrel aging contribute to its silky precision. The wine displays a deep ruby robe with garnet reflections, dense and luminous. The complex aroma offers candied black raspberry, lightly smoked black tea, delicate iris, a hint of marzipan, lifted by a subtle chalky salinity. The palate has a silky attack, lively and precise acidity, and a chalky minerality that carries a long, floral finish, where fruity sweetness and soft spices intertwine. Also noted are red and black cherries, wild strawberries, blood orange, cocoa, and rose aromas. 🍴 Chinese Cantonese food pairing various types of suggestion east or west corresponding to wine cost IN ENGLISH This Premier Cru Burgundy pairs beautifully with game meats and sauced dishes.
