Wine Advocate
Reviewed May 2011The 2008 Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses is endowed with an explosive bouquet and a multi-dimensional, textured core of dark fruit. The inner palate sweetness, richness and nuance here are all breathtaking. The finish seems to last into the next day. This is another spellbinding effort from Mugnier. (AG) 95+

Burghound
A highly floral and spicy plum and red berry fruit-suffused nose merges into rich but elegant and very pure, intense, detailed and dusty middle weight flavors that are strikingly refined and highly complex, all wrapped in a seductive and almost pungently mineral-driven finish of superb length. This is a really lovely and classy effort fashioned in Mugnier's understated and harmonious style. *Outstanding*

Int'l Wine Cellar
Palish medium red. Wild raspberry, orange peel, underbrush and a whiff of porcini on the nose. Sweet, wild and seamless, with superb energy giving focus to the flavors of red berries, spices, flowers and minerals. There's an exhilarating, almost citrussy acidity here that leaves the salivary glands quivering. This very backward wine will need extended aging to develop more amplitude. (ST)

Pale and limpid with a lovely ethereal quality to it. Lots to savour and smack one’s lips over. Very complete on the nose. Hint of yeast extract. Very sweet floral notes on ripe fruit. Extremely charming. Gentle, pure with a wonderfully light touch. Trademark Mugnier purity. 18/20 points (JR)
