Côte-de-Nuits

Chambolle-Musigny

Chambolle-Musigny lies on the southern border of Morey-Saint-Denis. Its AOC status dates from September 1936, making it one of the first French vineyards to be designated.

Like Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambolle-Musigny is completely planted to Pinot Noir. However, the styles associated with the respective appellations present an intriguing contrast. Where Gevrey-Chambertin has a reputation for powerful, structured Pinot Noirs, Chambolle-Musigny typically offers more delicate expressions. This is not to suggest that Chambolle-Musigny is a wilting violet; rather its intensity manifests in more subtly, with soft tannins and pretty aromatics.

Chambolle-Musigny is home to two superb Grands Crus: Bonnes-Mares, which links its vineyards to those of Morey-Saint-Denis, and the great Musigny vineyard, which overlooks the Clos de Vougeot. The village also boasts among its fine wines the prestigious Premier Cru, Les Amoureuses.

The appellation’s sloping vineyards face east at altitudes of 250-300 metres with only a shallow covering of soil overlying the parent rock, but fissures in the hard Jurassic limestone allow the roots to seek nourishment deep within the sub-soil. Boulders and gravels in the valley bottom ensure good drainage.

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Grand Cru 'Bonnes-Mares' 2017

Pinot Noir from Chambolle-Musigny, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Grand Cru ‘Bonnes-Mares’ 2017

A very ripe yet agreeably fresh nose reflects notes of blue berry, plum liqueur and violet that are cut with spice and earth hints. The exceptionally rich and impressively full-bodied flavors evidence a taut muscularity, all wrapped in an overtly powerful and lingering finish that is naturally sweet. As one would reasonably expect this is quite firm but the 2017 version appears to be a bit less structured than it usually is. 2029+. Burghound

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Grand Cru 'Bonnes-Mares' 2022

Pinot Noir from Chambolle-Musigny, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Grand Cru ‘Bonnes-Mares’ 2022

Note: from a 2.67 ha parcel situated entirely in terres rouges soil in the far southern portion of the vineyard. An even spicier and more floral-suffused nose is comprised mostly by blue pinot fruit and discreet earth wisps. The succulent, refined and vibrant medium-bodied flavors aren't especially concentrated though they do possess impressive power on the beautifully long and equally well-balanced finale. This is a wine that is certainly built to repay extended keeping but it's not so compact

Pinot Noir from Chambolle-Musigny, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Grand Cru ‘Bonnes-Mares’ 2023

Note: from a 2.67 ha parcel situated entirely in terres rouges soil in the far southern portion of the vineyard. A slightly riper nose of blue skinned fruit, plum, anise and more evident floral influence is complemented by the equally ripe, rich and opulent larger-bodied flavors where the seductive texture contrasts markedly with the firm, serious, powerful and robust finale. This beautifully well-balanced and superbly long effort should age effortlessly. Tasted Jan 2025Allen Meadows, Burgho

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru 'Les Amoureuses' 2023

Pinot Noir from Chambolle-Musigny, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru ‘Les Amoureuses’ 2023

Note: from a .56 ha parcel where approximately .16 ha of it was pulled up after the 2021 harvest, leaving a .40 ha holding in productionA completely different aromatic profile is strikingly elegant, airy and expressive with a perfumed combination of spice and floral elements, especially violet and rose petal, along with the essence of red pinot fruit. The super-sleek and markedly mineral-driven medium weight flavors display stunningly good length before culminating in a youthfully aus

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Grand Cru 'Musigny' Vielles Vignes 2022

Pinot Noir from Chambolle-Musigny, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Grand Cru ‘Musigny’ Vielles Vignes 2022

Note: from an incredible 6.46 ha parcel, which doesn't include the .67 ha section planted to chardonnay. This is aromatically quite similar to the 1er except that it is notably more restrained and requires considerable swirling to coax the nose to reveal its nuances. On the palate though there is noticeably more size, weight and mid-palate density thanks to the abundant sap that imparts a highly seductive mouthfeel while also buffering the firmer, though just as fine, tannic structure shaping th

Pinot Noir from Chambolle-Musigny, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Grand Cru ‘Musigny’ Vielles Vignes 2023

Note: from an incredible 6.46 ha parcel, which doesn't include the .67 ha section planted to chardonnay. A more restrained if just as pretty and equally perfumed nose displays a similar array of red and dark cherry, exotic jasmine tea and dried orange peel along with a hint of sandalwood. On the palate the broad-shouldered and even more concentrated flavors manage the trick of being more powerful but also more refined with an almost aggressive minerality that seems to build in intensity on the c

Domaine de la Vougeraie Grand Cru 'Musigny' 2022

Pinot Noir from Chambolle-Musigny, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine de la Vougeraie Grand Cru ‘Musigny’ 2022

An admirably subtle touch of wood serves as a backdrop for the exuberantly floral-infused and perfumed nose that offers up notes of exotic spice, poached plum and jasmine tea. The equally tautly muscular yet refined and lilting flavors are blessed with excellent punch and power while exhibiting a pungent minerality on the hugely long built-to-age finish. This refined effort is both stylish and very classy. (from two parcels totaling .21 ha; 100% whole clusters) 2037+Allen Meadows, Burghound
