Chambolle-Musigny – the vineyard articles

The Grand Crus of Chambolle-Musigny

Two of the best Grand Crus are located in Chambolle-Musigny – and this is also the case with some of the best 1er crus and village terroirs.

Musigny

  • Vineyard Insight: Musigny – ownership maps
    Musigny is in my view one of the greatest Grand Crus in Burgundy rivalling at least some of the Grand Crus of Vosne-Romanee. While Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé is the dominant owner on Musigny with almost 70% of the vineyard, the rest of the vineyard is divided between 10 owners. The Musigny Grand Cru has ...
  • Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé – History and Vineyards
    I have followed Burgundy wines quite closely the last 20 to 25 years – tasting a lot of lovely wines from many different domaines. One domaine does however hold a special place in my passion for Burgundy wines – the name is Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé – a domaine with history, great vineyards, passion and ...

The 1er crus of Chambolle-Musigny

Some of the very best 1er crus are located in Chambolle-Musigny – producing wines that sometimes are matching the prices of most Grand Crus produced in other Burgundy appellations.

Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses

  • Vineyard Insight: Robert Groffier Chambolle Les Amoureuses
    I adore Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses, the wine from one of the most vivid and sensual vineyards in Burgundy. It is a vineyard with tremendous potential and a legendary reputation. There are great estates in the village of Chambolle which have been at the top of the producer tree for the last three decades or even longer. ...
  • Vineyard Insight: Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses
    Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses is the delight of Burgundy … filigree, sensual, cool and refined. The female pendant to Musigny with the same type of regal minerality – yet more delicate and lightfooted – without the sheer power and depth of the mighty Musigny. By heart it’s a 1er cru – and while many argue that it ...
  • Chambolle Musigny – the 1861 classification
    The 1861 classification from Comite d’Agriculture de Beaune1 is a very detailed document, including very precise informations about the classification of the different climates in Burgundy. While Lavalle1 offer some details about the split classification of some vineyards – this document offer a classifcation on cadastre level .. i.e. if the top part of a vineyard ...

  • La Combe d’Orveau – village, 1er cru and a part of Musigny
    The Chambolle-Musigny La Combe d’Orveau is one of the hidden gems of Cote de Nuits. Only a few producers make wine from this slightly overlooked terroir and a part of of the climate is now a part of a “rather” well known grand cru. The grand cru is of course Musigny and the story about ...

    Chambolle-Musigny Les Vèroilles

    • Terroir Insight: Ghislaine Barthod Chambolle-Musigny Les Véroilles
      I go to Burgundy more than five times a year to taste, to visit vignerons, to walk the vineyards … yet still I find new or to me unknown producers and vineyards – this is the beauty and the complexity of Burgundy – the region I love so much. Even unknown monopole vineyards can still ...
