Goedhuis, January 2011
From 70-year old vines in the very centre of the village, this is a beautifully balanced Chambolle with appealing red fruit flavours and subtle levels of tension in the mid-palate. This is very clean and vibrant and a super sweet finish.

Neal Martin, January 2011, Score: 91-93
Two samples tasted, one bottle not showing well, but the other sublime. The Gruenchers has a lovely bouquet with touches of vanilla complementing the redcurrant, red cherry and crushed strawberry fruit. This simply soars from the glass! The palate is has a silky smooth entry, a Chambolle of volume and finesse, the crisp red-berried fruit exerting a gentle but insistent grip towards the finish. Excellent.

Light cherry red. Seems more developed on the nose (not palate) than other Premiers Crus from this address. Very pure and direct on the palate. Absolutely no games. Just pure vineyard into bottle.

Exquisitely pure, ethereal, and terroir-driven, Ghislaine’s wines also have wonderful mineral raciness. The domaine was originally created by Marcel Noëllat, Ghislaine’s maternal grandfather. After attending viticultural college in Beaune in the 1980s, she began assisting her father, Gaston Barthod, at the family domaine. Her straightforward, no-nonsense approach helped introduce a sorting table, extended lees contact, a gentle cold soak before fermentation, and domaine bottling. All this enabled greater control over the quality of fruit, texture of tannins, and purity of flavours. The results have been year upon year of magical masterpieces from Chambolle Musigny. Along with her partner Louis Boillot, today she is joined in the vineyard and cellar by their son, Clément.Read less

Region
Chambolle Musigny
The wines of Chambolle Musigny are like no other. They can be superbly delicate, yet mindblowingly complex. Of all the northern Burgundy appellations, they are the most ethereal, and as a result the most feminine. Most of the Chambolle Musigny vineyard area is encompassed in its Village and Premier Cru appellations including the robust Beaux Bruns, the splendidly mineral Le Cras and the poised yet powerful Les Amoureuses. It produces only two Grand Crus - the round and rich Bonnes Mares which it shares with Morey St. Dénis, as well as what could be described as the Stradivarius of grand crus, Musigny.
