The 2022 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Chambolle-Musigny is a beautifully refined expression of one of Burgundy’s most revered domaines, capturing the perfume, silkiness and mineral precision that have made Chambolle-Musigny famous. Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé has been established in Chambolle-Musigny for generations and owns an exceptional collection of vineyards, including a significant proportion of the legendary Musigny Grand Cru. The village wine incorporates fruit from the domaine’s holdings in Les Baudes and Les Fuées, together with younger-vine material from the estate’s exceptional vineyards, giving the wine remarkable depth and pedigree for a village-level Burgundy. The 2022 vintage is particularly impressive, combining ripe fruit and generosity with excellent freshness and balance.
The nose is expressive and beautifully perfumed, revealing aromas of raspberry, wild strawberry, red cherry and darker forest berries, layered with violet, rose petal and delicate floral notes. As the wine opens, more complex nuances of plum, cassis, soft spice, liquorice and subtle earthy minerality emerge, with a faint smoky character adding further depth. There is a wonderful purity to the aromatics, balancing the generous fruit of the 2022 vintage with the lifted floral character that is so distinctive of Chambolle-Musigny.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied, silky and beautifully composed, with succulent red and dark berries supported by vibrant acidity and finely grained tannins. The fruit has impressive concentration for a village wine, while notes of raspberry, plum, violet, gentle spice and chalky minerality unfold through the mid-palate. The texture is sophisticated and polished, with excellent energy and a subtle savoury character emerging towards the finish. The wine remains fresh and precise despite the warmth of the 2022 vintage, leading to a long, elegant and mineral-driven finish with lingering red fruit, floral notes and delicate spice. The 2022 wines from de Vogüé have been noted for their openness, generosity and lively fruit while retaining excellent balance.
