Domaine Amiot Servelle Chambolle-Musigny 2016
Christian Amiot and his son guided me through their latest vintages at their tasting room and over in their barrel cellar, close to the church in Chambolle-Musigny. “We lost 60% of the production in Chambolle-Musigny but it was better in Morey,” Christian told me. “There is just one barrel of Les Fuées. The small quantities made the wines complicated to vinify. We started harvest in the beginning of October.” The domaine owns a clutch of good holdings including Les Amoureuses and Clos Saint-Denis. They tend to be quite stocky wines that lean toward more black fruit than red. They can reward cellaring, especially as they can be a bit tough in their youth. The impact of the frost certainly did affect quality this year and some of the Chambolle-Musignys struggled, with the notable exception of the Derrière La Grange, if I recall the smallest of the appellation’s premier crus.
