Tasting notes
The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Feusselottes is also showing especially well, exhibiting a deep bouquet of Morello cherries, dark berries, warm spices and licorice. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, lavish and gourmand, with an enveloping attack, a voluminous core of fruit and largely concealed structuring tannins. Unusually, it will drink well with minimal cellaring.

Mid crimson. Dark-red fruit and so elegant on the nose, with a slight floral note but also a stony mineral edge. Less rich on the palate than the Chambolle Combottes, tighter, less seduction and yet with great length. A refined beauty and juicy on the finish. (JH)
The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Les Feusselottes 1er Cru, matured in two-thirds new oak, represents the Felettigs’ smallest cuvée, at just three-and-a-half barrels. It has a very sensual bouquet of plush red fruit that becomes darker with aeration, touches of pressed iris and lavender emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin. There is a symmetry about this Feusselottes, which is supremely well focused, delivering a lot of substance and grip on the finish while maintaining freshness. The finish is slightly chalky in texture but very persistent. Very, very impressive.
