(WA92-94 points) The feisty 2012 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses is a completely different animal to the Bonnes-Mares. It explodes from the glass with precocious blackberry, blueberry, creme de cassis and cola scents, plus underlying mineralite that will need several years to be fully revealed. The palate is medium-bodied, very well behaved on the entry and then explodes to reveal raucous notes of blackberry, dark chocolate, minerals and citrus fruits. The finish is quite sharp and racy, lending freshness and tension. This is like opening the door on a party that is already in full flow. - Neal Martin
