The Domaine G. Roumier Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Cras 2006 is a highly sought-after wine from one of Burgundy's most renowned and prestigious producers, Georges Roumier. Roumier's wines are celebrated for their purity, elegance, and ability to age gracefully, and the Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Cras is no exception.

Key Details:

  • Producer: Domaine Georges Roumier
  • Appellation: Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru, Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France
  • Vineyard: Les Cras, a premier cru vineyard in Chambolle-Musigny, known for its stony, limestone-rich soils, which impart minerality and finesse to the wines.
  • Grape Variety: 100% Pinot Noir
  • Vintage: 2006

Tasting Notes:

  • Aromas: This wine opens with classic Chambolle-Musigny aromas of red berries (cherry, raspberry), floral notes like violet, and subtle earthy, mineral undertones from the vineyard's limestone soils. As it ages, secondary aromas like dried herbs, forest floor, and truffle may develop.
  • Palate: The 2006 vintage shows excellent balance with bright acidity and refined tannins. Expect a delicate yet persistent palate of red fruit, with hints of spice, minerality, and a smooth, long finish.
  • Body: Medium-bodied with a silky texture, typical of the Chambolle-Musigny style.
  • Aging Potential: The 2006 vintage has had nearly two decades to evolve and should now display well-integrated tannins and complex flavors. It’s suitable for drinking now but could also continue to develop for several more years.

Food Pairing:

This wine pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as roasted poultry, duck, lighter game meats, or dishes with earthy elements like mushrooms or truffles. It also complements soft cheeses like Brie or Camembert.

Domaine G. Roumier is one of the top producers in Burgundy, and their wines are highly collectible. The 2006 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Cras represents a harmonious blend of elegance, minerality, and vibrant fruit, showcasing the hallmark characteristics of Chambolle-Musigny.
