The Chambolle-Musigny has a detailed bouquet, complex as you would expect from such a propitious vineyard, touches of chalk and granite infusing the red and black fruit, beautifully focused and gaining intensity all the time in the glass. The palate is medium bodied with supple tannin, tensile and focused, full of energy with a structured, more masculine finish than I was anticipating. Therefore, it will need several years in bottle but should turn out to be a long-term contender. Expect it to land at the top of my banded score post-bottling.

Vines situated in the heart of the village give this wine its ripe, generous berry flavor. The tannins, while firm, are integrated into the bold fruitiness. This round while structured wine has good acidity to balance the richness.

Louis Latour - Chambolle-Musigny

Louis Latour's Chambolle-Musigny is a red wine that is made from Pinot Noir grapes grown in the Chambolle-Musigny appellation in the Côte de Nuits region of Burgundy, France. This wine is known for its delicate and elegant taste profile, with notes of red fruit, violets, and a hint of spice.

The history of Louis Latour dates back to 1797, when the family first started producing wine in the region. Today, the company is still family-owned and operated, and is known for its commitment to quality and tradition. The Chambolle-Musigny is a testament to this, as it is made using traditional winemaking techniques and aged in oak barrels for 10 to 12 months.

This wine is best enjoyed with a meal, particularly with dishes that feature red meat or game. It pairs well with roasted duck, beef bourguignon, or a hearty mushroom risotto. Alternatively, it can be enjoyed on its own, sipped slowly to fully appreciate its complex and nuanced flavours.

The French Wine region of Burgundy (aka “Bourgogne”) may be small in size, but its influence is huge in the world of vino. The complexity of Burgundy can cast fear into the heart of even a seasoned wine pro, but fear not – the region need only be as complicated as you want it to be. Yes, it is home to some of the most expensive wines in the known universe, but there are also tasty and affordable wines.

Main grapes:

Pinot Noir originated in Burgundy and these vines cover 34% of the region, accounting for 29% of overall wine production. The red grape does extremely well in limestone and clay soil, which helps create their complexity. Pinot Noir wines from Burgundy range in colour from cherry to brick, are light in body, and typically have red fruit and spicy flavours. Gamay is a red grape also grown in Burgundy, but only makes up 10% of the vines.

Chardonnay is the primary grape for white wines in Burgundy, making up 48% of the vines and 68% of production. Chardonnay appreciates Burgundy’s marl soil, which gives it delicate floral, fruit, and mineral aromas and full-bodied flavours. Aligoté is the second white grape, accounting for 6% grown. {Read more about the ancient Aligoté grape in Burgundy.}

The region does produce a sparkling wine called Crémant de Bourgogne. It can be made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy, and Melon. Varieties include blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs, and rosé.
