- Producer tasting notes: (2020 vintage) "Le Musigny shares certain characteristics with its neighbour Les Amoureuses; the elegance of richness without heaviness, and it has a similar palette of aromatic composition, although in the case of the Musigny, the underlying structure is less vibrant, more steady, with exceptional depth and intensity of flavour. The length of the finish on the palate is incomparable." - Domaine Jacques-Frederic Mugnier

Vineyard Notes: Our parcel of de 1.14 ha (2.8 acres) is entirely situated within the part known as « Grand-Musigny ». All of the vines were planted between 1947 and 1962, with the exception of only a small area (15%) replanted in 1997. The grapes from this part are declassified and are included in the Chambolle-Musigny « village » appellation. Therefore the only wine that we produce under Le Musigny appellation is from old vines. The composition of the soil varies in as one climbs the slope. Lower down the slope it is similar in structure to “Les Amoureuses” vineyard, although the underlying rock is more fissured. This allows the vine roots to explore deeper while enabling faster drainage .The upper part of the slope is primarily composed of a marl soil, lightened by large masses of friable oolitic limestone, this ensures good moisture reserves.
