Domaine Ghislaine Barthod Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Aux Beaux Bruns 2023 [NET]

The darkest and most muscular wine in the Barthod cellar, and at three-quarters of a hectare of fifty-year-old vines it is also her largest premier cru holding. Aux Beaux Bruns sits at the northern end of the commune on the lower part of the slope, below the Les Groseilles climat, and its soil is the outlier in Chambolle: chalky marl with a high clay content under loose rocky topsoil, which holds water and gives the fruit real flesh where most of the village gives perfume. The result is a Chambolle with dark fruit, broad shoulders and a high-toned, almost amaro-like spice, with more grip than the commune's reputation would lead you to expect. Barthod's cellar work stays deliberately quiet, with partial destemming, native yeasts and roughly twenty months in barrel using a fifth to a quarter new oak, so the site does the talking. 2023's huge crop had to be cut back hard in the vineyard to make wines this concentrated, and the fruit that came in was clean and floral without any sense of overripeness. Give it a couple of years, or a long decant now, and expect it to run into the late 2030s.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast duck, squab with lentils, beef daube, or a deeply savory mushroom risotto. It has the structure for a hard aged cheese like Comte.

Tasting Profile

Black cherry, blackberry and dried herbs with baking spice and a bitter-orange edge. Fuller-bodied for Chambolle, with firm tannins and good acidity. Broad, spiced, long finish.
