Domaine Drouhin-Laroze Chambolle-Musigny 2005 is a Pinot Noir from various parcels across the village, where the limestone-heavy soils produce wines of famed elegance. Drouhin-Laroze ages this wine in French oak for 18 months, using a small proportion of new barrels to enhance the texture without overwhelming the delicate floral notes. This release is defined by aromas of crushed violets, raspberry and sweet spice. On the palate, it offers a lacy texture and a bright mineral lift, distinguishing it from the sturdier Gevrey-Chambertin produced by the same estate. At 21 years of age, the 2005 is drinking beautifully, offering a balanced profile of mature fruit and secondary earthy complexity.
