Chambolle Musigny Domaine Castagnier 2023
In Morey-Saint-Denis, Jérôme Castagnier left a career as a military trumpeter to farm his family's small, Grand Cru-rich domaine biodynamically. From fragments of Clos de la Roche to village Chambolle, his wines favour restraint, precision and unhurried Burgundian patience.
The domaine's village Chambolle-Musigny comes from a single parcel in Aux Echanges, surrounded by Premier Crus. The 2023 should show clay-over-limestone minerality lending real structure to Pinot Noir's perfumed cherry and floral character — precise and understated.
