Goedhuis, December 2019
Along with 1er Cru Les Fuées this is Chambolle’s highest and coolest vineyard site. Ghislaine’s father Gaston always favoured this vineyard in hotter years and this superb 2018 shows exactly why. A brilliant array of red fruits, cranberries and pomegranate. This is bright and lovely with great substance. It is wonderfully poised with an extraordinary purity. Brilliant.

Burghound, January 2020, Score: 92-95
Here the nose is presently sufficiently reduced as to render an evaluation difficult. More interesting are the racy, intense and transparent middle weight flavors that brim with both minerality and dry extract where the latter helps to buffer the moderately austere, serious and strikingly long finale. I very much like the contrast between an almost delicate mid-palate and the bold, powerful and even muscular backend. Drink 2033+. Don't miss! Outstanding

Jasper Morris MW, January 2020, Score: 91-95
Dark purple, slightly reductive nose. Then a really classy attack. This is often my favourite wine in the cellar and may well be again once the light reduction which gives a mix of blackcurrant leaf and a touch of torrefaction. Beautiful harmony otherwise and a fine long finish.

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.
