Domaine Ghislaine Barthod Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Aux Beaux Bruns 2023

Domaine Ghislaine Barthod Aux Beaux Bruns comes from sixty-five-year-old vines on red clay and limestone pebbles near the village, and is the earliest-drinking cru in the range.

Aux Beaux Bruns is one of the Premiers Crus lying close to the village of Chambolle-Musigny, on the same latitude as Les Charmes, and it shares that vineyard’s fleshy, textural character while opening earlier and carrying a more earthy, rocky complexity. The soils hold a good deal of red clay along with plenty of limestone pebbles, and the parcel is always the first of Barthod’s sites to be picked. The domaine farms 0.73 hectares here of sixty-five-year-old vines, a large holding by its standards, and the wine that results is aromatic and generous where others in the range are austere in youth. Domaine Ghislaine Barthod works almost entirely in Chambolle across ten Premiers Crus, with restrained new oak and gentle handling in the cellar.

Approachable at three or four years and good for a dozen. Serve at 16-18°C with roast pork, duck or a soft washed-rind cheese.
