Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru 2023

The name of the village Chambolle is probably derived from the Celtic "cambola", already reputed for its vineyards in Gallo-Roman times and cultivated by the monks in the Middle Ages. Joseph Drouhin owns several Premier Cru parcels.

Since they are too small, these Premier Cru vineyards (Noirots, Hauts Doix, Borniques, Plantes, Combottes) are harvested and vinified together. The name given to this wine is therefore Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru (since the components of this "cuvée" are all Premier Crus).

Appearance: Bright and vivid ruby-red colour, characteristic of fine Pinot Noir from the Côte de Nuits.

Nose: A refined and complex bouquet, with aromas of ripe red and black berries (cherry, blackberry), delicate floral notes such as violet, and hints of forest floor or fresh earth.

Palate: Silky attack, with fine, noble tannins and an elegant structure. Beautiful balance between freshness and velvety texture. The stone fruit flavours linger through to a harmonious and persistent finish, showing depth and finesse.

Food & Wine Pairing: A perfect match for herb-roasted poultry, veal fillet, mushroom risotto, delicate game dishes, or aged cheeses. Ideal with refined, elegant cuisine that respects the subtlety of the wine.
