From the Archive
This vineyard sits next to Musigny. The quality of the site is evidenced by the first sniff of the glass, with a seductive perfume of violets, redcurrants and a dash of white pepper. Classically Chambolle, with a touch of extra roundness and flesh courtesy of the vintage, there are just two barrels in 2018.
