Chambolle-Musigny, Gruenchers, 1er Cru, 2024
A very stony terroir just below Fuées. Initial white-pepper lift and stony tension lead to crisp, clear fruit. Discreet, mineral and cleansing. Pure Chambolle elegance—wonderful poise. Effortless. A vineyard with relatively poor soils, situated just below Fuées. The vines are now 60 years old. Ghislaine was fortunate enough to buy this vineyard from Pousse d'Or in 2009.
critic reviews
The 2024 Chambolle-Musigny Les Gruenchers 1er Cru comprises two barrels this year. This has a perfumed nose, very well defined and pure, dark berry fruit laced with forest floor and light bay leaf scents. Fine lift. The palate is medium-bodied with commendable delineation, pure and refined, good tension with a dash of spice that enhances the persistent finish. A delightful Chambolle-Musigny.
