Critical Recognition
- 90 - 93 Points (Outstanding) - Allen Meadows (Burghound): A perfumed and quite floral nose freely offers up its aromas of the slightly riper essence of red cherry, currant and a whiff of spice nuances. The lacy and equally finely textured middle weight flavors also possess an almost delicate mouthfeel that tightens up somewhat on the dusty, balanced and sneaky long finale. This is lovely and pretty much textbook Feusselottes.
Highlights
- 100% Pinot Noir harvested from "Les Feusselottes," a prime Premier Cru climat nestled in the sweet spot of central Chambolle-Musigny near Les Charmes.
- Planted on shallow Bathonian limestone and rocky red-clay soils that impart Feusselottes’ celebrated floral aromatics, silky tannins, and fine mineral cut.
- Crafted by Domaine Glantenay, employing gentle extraction, parcel-specific vinification, and judicious oak maturation to showcase transparent terroir typicity.
- Aged for approximately 15 to 18 months in French oak barrels (around 25–30% new oak) to seamlessly integrate structure while preserving primary red berry clarity.
- From the expressive, generous 2023 Burgundy harvest; delivers captivating aromatic lift today alongside the tension and balance to age gracefully through 2035+.
Tasting Notes
Bright, translucent ruby with violet reflections, it opens with an alluring bouquet of wild strawberries, red cherries, and raspberry liqueur, interwoven with crushed violets, dried rose petals, and subtle baking spices. The palate is medium-bodied, silky, and seamless, presenting energetic red berry fruit supported by powdery, fine-grained tannins and vibrant limestone acidity, concluding on a long, graceful, and chalky-mineral finish.
Serving Suggestion
- Temperature: Serve cellar-cool at 14–16°C in generous Pinot Noir stemware.
- Decanting: Best enjoyed with 20 to 30 minutes of gentle aeration in the glass to allow its floral perfume and red berry core to unfurl; pairs exquisitely with roasted duck breast, pigeon, veal chops with chanterelles, or mild semi-firm cheeses. Optimal drinking window now through 2035+.
