Fred Mugnier and his team made some of best wines in Chambolle-Musigny in 2018, typified by the quality of this village cuvée from La Combe d'Orveaux and a little bit of the Les Plantes Premier Cru. Pale, delicate and hauntingly perfumed, with wild strawberry and pomegranate flavours, stylish 25% new wood, velvety tannins and a vivacity that sustains and deepens the finish. Delicious drinking.

Revisited in bottle, Mugnier's 2018 Chambolle-Musigny Village bursts with aromas of raspberries, cherries, warm spices, rose petals and heather. Medium to full-bodied, bright and charming, with a fleshy core of fruit and rich structuring tannins, it's not quite as exquisitely refined as its 2019 counterpart, but it has turned out very well.

The 2018 Chambolle-Musigny Village has an outgoing bouquet of blackberry, wild hedgerow, heather and woodland aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins, darker fruit than expected and traces of black tea and undergrowth toward the composed finish. Very fine.

Varietal: Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir translates as 'black pine' in French, and is named as such due to the extremely inky color of the fruits, which hang in bunches the shape of a pine cone. Wineries often struggle with Pinot Noir vines, as more than most red wine grape varietals, they fail in hot temperatures and are rather susceptible to various diseases which can be disastrous when hoping for a late harvest. Thanks to new technologies and methods for avoiding such problems, however, the Pinot Noir grape varietal has spread across the world to almost every major wine producing country. Why? Quite simply because this is considered to be one of the finest grape varietals one can cultivate, due to the fact that it can be used to produce a wide range of excellent wines full of interesting, fresh and fascinating flavors Their thin skins result in a fairly light-bodied wine, and the juices carry beautiful notes of summer fruits, currants and berries, and many, many more.

Region: Burgundy

The beautiful region of Burgundy in France is famously home to some of the most exquisite red wines to be found anywhere on earth, and is most commonly associated with the silky, elegant and flavorful Pinot Noir varietal wines which are commonly produced there. However, the superb and mineral rich soils fed by the Rhone river, and the long hot summers and mild autumns of the region produce a wide variety of fine grapes, and as such, Burgundy produces plenty of different wines which are equally as good as the produce the region is famed for. The region of Burgundy itself has a wine-making history which stretches back at least two thousand years, and as such, it comes as no surprise that the wineries which fill the dozens of controlled appellations of the region rely heavily on traditional methods and techniques when it comes to producing their famous wines.

Country: France

It is widely understood and accepted that the finest wines in the world come out of France. Whether you are drinking a vintage bottle from one of the famed Grand Cru wineries of Bordeaux - such as Chateau Margaux or Chateau Lafite-Rothschild - or a more simple and affordable bottle from one of the lesser known appellations in Burgundy, the likelihood is that the wine is packed full of intense and interesting flavors, and has a fine, balanced structure typical of almost all French produce. This reputation for excellence is taken extremely serious by the French, with dozens of regularly updated laws and regulations ensuring the quality and accurate labeling of wines. Such dedication and passion for fine wine, representative of the region in which it is produced, means customers can be assured that when they buy a bottle from France, they are buying something almost certain to please and delight.
