Description
The Chambolle Musigny holdings come from their Grandmother’s side of the family, Georgette Midan, who married their Grandfather Georges Glantenay. The vines were leased out en fermage until 2003. From a .45 hectare parcel of 45-65 year old vines from three lieu dits : les Creux Baissants (a cooler NE facing site), les Condemennes (a well placed site just below 1er cru les Charmes), and les Fremières (just below 1er cru les Baudes/les Noirots). Guillaume’s sensibility for freshness, prettiness, and purity seem quite well suited for bringing out the airy, cool, and precise qualities of great Chambolle……this is one to get a 6pk/case of if Chambolle is something that tickles your heart strings……
“A cool, airy and markedly floral-suffused nose speaks of a very pretty mix of both red and black raspberry, spice and a whisper of wood. The intensely mineral-driven middle weight flavors are refined and while the youthfully austere finish is not exactly delicate, it is certainly chiseled. A lovely Chambolle villages. (89-91)/2025+” Allan Meadows ———-> “particularly outstanding for their respective appellations and especially merit your attention”
