Tasted blind at the annual "Burgfest" tasting in Beaune. The 2012 Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru les Fuées from Ghislaine-Barthod has a tightly wound bouquet with undergrowth infused red berry fruit, a little rustic in style with autumn leaves, tree bark and spicebox aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, supple tannins. The acidity here is assiduously judged, very focused and poised with a caressing, natural finish. After the odd showing of Ghislaine's "Les Cras" 2012, this is much more encouraging - a really quite delectable Chambolle-Musigny from one of its finest growers.
