Chambolle Musigny Amoureuses, Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé 2008

A highly spiced and stunningly elegant nose offers up a complex mixture of dried rose petal, plum and mostly dark berry fruit aromas that remain almost completely primary. There is fine precision to the pure and gorgeously intense moderately full-bodied flavors that possess a caressing mouth feel while delivering serious punch and drive on the still youthfully structured and mineral-inflected finish. This is firm but not hard and if given 30+ minutes of air could even be enjoyed now. That said, I would be inclined to hold this beauty for another 8 to 10 years.
