The 2009 Chambolle-Musigny is flat-out gorgeous. It shows fabulous depth and dimension in its dark red cherries, rose petals and spices. The 2009 is sensual, round and perfumed, yet at the same time possesses quite a bit of texture. This is a relatively full-bodied style of village level Chambolle, as the parcels are on the border with Morey, just below Bonnes-Mares and Sentiers. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024.
My tasting at Dujac was one of the highlights of the two weeks I spent in Burgundy in late November/early December 2011. I tasted through all the 2010s in barrel and 2009s in bottle. The domaine’s 2009s are among the wines of the vintage.
