2021 Domaine Daniel Bouland Chiroubles Chatenay

The 2021 Chiroubles Chatenay is a notable success this year, delivering aromas of sweet plums, spices, peonies and raw cocoa, followed by a medium-bodied, lively and seamless wine, with tangy acids and melting tannins. Bouland's Chiroubles has been pretty powerful in recent vintages, but this marks a return to the fine-boned, mouthwatering style that fans of this high-altitude cru may well be craving. 92 points.  JH 2023
