The 2017 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Chambolle-Musigny is a beautifully refined expression of one of Burgundy’s most revered domaines, capturing the perfume, purity and elegance that define Chambolle-Musigny. Produced from 100% Pinot Noir, this village wine benefits from de Vogüé’s exceptional vineyard holdings, including fruit from old vines and parcels with outstanding terroir pedigree. The 2017 vintage is particularly successful here, combining ripe fruit and impressive concentration with the freshness, precision and finesse that make the wines of de Vogüé so distinctive. The result is a Chambolle-Musigny that is both immediately seductive and capable of further development in bottle.
The nose is expressive and beautifully perfumed, revealing aromas of red cherry, raspberry, pomegranate and black cherry, layered with violet, dark rose petals and subtle floral notes. As the wine opens, more complex nuances of cassis, liquorice, damp woodland, spice and delicate earthy character emerge, with a gentle mineral quality adding further definition. There is excellent purity to the fruit, balancing the darker character of the 2017 vintage with the lifted floral perfume and freshness that are hallmarks of Chambolle-Musigny.
