Description

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé
Chambolle-Musigny

 

 

DESCRIPTION:

    • The de Vogüé villages wine comes mainly from a 1.8 hectares plot in the climate of Les Porlottes, close to the wood on the western side of the village, with a typical production of a little over 400 cases.
    • The soil here covers a bed of limestone and contains many small rocks.
    • The vines have an average age of just under 30 years.
    • The Domaine also owns small sections totaling 0.34 ha in the Chambolle 1er Crus of Les Baudes (average 54 year-old vines) and Les Fuées whose vines average 45 years.
    • Rather than vinify these separately, they effectively declassify the resulting 1er Cru wines by choosing to blend into their single villages cuvée.

GRAPE VARIETY:

    • 100% Pinot Noir

FOOD PAIRINGS:

    • Pinot Noir is well-suited to pair with poultry, beef, fish, ham, lamb and pork.
    • It will play well with creamy sauces, spicy seasonings and may just be one of the world’s most versatile food wines.

TASTING NOTES:

    • Medium cherry-red; fades to salmon pink at the edge.
    • The nose shows powdery, pure red fruit.
    • The palate gives a very fresh expression; medium length but quite lacy and très elegant.
    • The fine tannins give a little bite on the finish but this is a lovely, pure and elegant, rather than powerful, example of Chambolle.
