2023 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogue Musigny Grand Cru 'Cuvee Vieilles Vignes' Cote de Nuits

When it comes to Burgundy, especially the charming village of Chambolle-Musigny, Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé is the name everyone knows. This estate has been nurturing the region’s finest vineyards for 20 generations (over 550 years). Owning the majority of the revered Musigny vineyard, de Vogüé isn’t just making wine—they’re crafting a legacy.

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé doesn’t just grow grapes—they nurture them. They use organic principles in their vineyards, letting nature take the lead. Horses plow the fields, and herbs are planted between rows to keep pests in check naturally. Winemaker François Millet believes in letting each vintage speak for itself, with minimal intervention. The result? A wine that’s pure, unfined, unfiltered, and brimming with character.

Musigny is one of the two Grand Crus of Chambolle-Musigny, and this is the domaine's old-vine bottling from it. In 2023 the wine was assembled from seven separate lots across the vineyard, each one vinified and tasted on its own before the final blend came together.

In the glass, the 2023 is cool and tightly wound. Blackberry, raspberry and dark cherry lead, followed by orange zest, rose petal, iris and a line of crushed stone. The tannins are ultra-refined, the core of fruit is rich, and the finish is long and fragrant. It is young now and has a long road ahead. This is a bottle for someone who already knows what Musigny can do.
