This comes from Les Ruchottes du Bas, a corner of vineyard next to Mazis-Chambertin. Lying high on the hillside, Ruchottes-Chambertin gives less massive wine than some of the other Gevrey-Chambertin Grands Crus, but finesse and aromatics can be outstanding. This comes partly from vines which are nearly 60 years old, partly from a plot which was re-planted in 2000,“which brings new life and vivacious energy to the blend,” says Marie-Andrée. Colour is deep, rich purple, the nose being ripe and fine, yet discreet. Palate is a wonderful balance between sleek, mouth-filling fruitiness, vivaciousness with gentle tannins, and an impressively long finish (for drinking 2026-2040+).

Winemaker
Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg
A wealth of family experience, with many tiny attentions to detail, account for the exquisite results at Domaine Mugneret-Gibourg. Run by sisters Marie-Christine and Marie-Andrée Mugneret, whose daughters also now play an active role in the day-to-day running of the property, this is one of Vosne-Romanée`s smartest addresses, for wines that have sublime purity and finesse. Gentle, non-interventionist methods are key at this Domaine. Only native yeasts are used, and wine movement is achieved by the use of compressed nitrogen or gravity, instead of mechanical pumping, whenever possible. Neither fining nor filtration are practised, which may account for the bounce, texture, raciness and splendid length of the wines. We are fortunate to have access to all the estate’s greatest wines, including the rare Nuits Saint Georges Au Bas de Combe, which comes exclusively to us, in the UK market.
