Tasting notes
The 2014 Chambolle Musigny Cuvée des Cigales was showing a little earthiness, some quite pronounced undergrowth aromas in this wine (you might think it had some whole bunch fruit, but it was 100% destemmed). The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannin, a little rustic perhaps, nicely balanced with a fizz of limestone on the finish, Morey-like in structure with moderate length. It just needs to muster a bit more charm by the time it is bottled.

Light blueish cherry red. Not as expressive on the nose as their village Morey today. Marked acidity – a bit severe. Pretty tough tannins on the end. Set for the long term? (JR)
