Ghislaine Barthod is celebrated for her precise, terroir-driven Chambolle-Musigny. Les Cras, a stony Premier Cru on the slope above the village, is prized for its limestone-rich soils and natural tension.

The 2022 was made with traditional fermentation and matured in French oak, yielding a structured, long-lived wine. It is one of Barthodโ€™s most mineral and age-worthy bottlings.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 95
"from a .85 ha parcel. This is the first wine to display any appreciable reduction and it's enough to push the underlying fruit to the background. By contrast the refined, intense and precise medium weight flavors possess that beguiling inner mouth perfume along with a pungent minerality, indeed the mouthfeel is akin to rolling tiny pebbles around the palate, all wrapped in a dusty, chalky, overtly austere and hugely long finale. This too could use better depth but that is almost certainly just a matter of letting time do its work."

Antonio Galloni

AG 96
"The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Les Cras 1er Cru bides its time unfolding in the glass, eventually revealing earthy red fruit, clove and hints of bergamot. This is very complex, but it is not a flashy Chambolle. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip on the entry. It has crisp acidity and is nicely structured with one of the most sapid finishes from the Domaine. This is one of their finest offerings in this vintage." -Neal Martin

What importer Rosenthal Wine Merchant has to say about this wine...

Les Cras is, unfailingly, the Everest of the Barthod offerings: imposing, elemental, and profound. The family owns a significant portion (0.86 hectares) of this premier cru which abuts Les Fuรฉes to the south, on the same filet of the slope as Bonnes-Mares. Always intensely mineral-driven, ruggedly structured, and deeply powerful, โ€œLes Crasโ€ still manages to exemplify the graceful essence of Chambolle, offering both large-scale impact and ultra-fine detail.
