Description
The 180 hectares of vines in the tiny village of Chambolle-Musigny are a soft interlude amongst the great vineyards of the Cote de Nuits, a moment of finesse before the masculine wines from Vougeot, Morey-Saint-Denis, and Gevrey-Chambertin. Chambolle-Musigny is one of the smallest Cote d'Or appellations and produces mostly red wines. The limestone soil is renowned for producing wines that are delicately scented and very elegant.
