I am still in Burgundy mood, which is a very expensive mood to be in wherever you live but especially when stuck in Norway. Luckily the selection is quite good and Friday my eyes landed on a Chambolle Musigny 2006 by Patrice Rion.
Patrice Rion is a small bio-dynamically family run winery in Nuits St George and was created in 1990.
According to what I was told previous weekend in Paris, Volnay and the Chambolle are the two most elegant and seductive wines from Burgundy. The wine is not unlike a Beaune Premier cru with a medium dark red colour but perhaps slightly less "fat" with a lovely delicate smell of raspberries and cherries. The taste was soft, elegant, silky , smooth, velvety with lovely fruit, balance and creamy tannins. Very yummy indeed and so is the price at around 40€, but when you need Burgundy its worth every penny!
Chambolle Musigny 2006, Patrice Rion P+ and drink between 4 to 6 years old.
Domaine Michele et Patrice RION, vins de Bourgogne
and please when you drink Burgundy wines: use Burgundy glasses otherwise you will not get the best of the lovely bouquet ! ! !
