Domaine Comte Georges de Vogue Chambolle Musigny Les Amoureuses Premier Cru 2023
This rare and heart-stopping red wine originates from the Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru appellation in the Côte de Nuits, Burgundy. While technically a Premier Cru, Les Amoureuses (The Lovers) is universally regarded by critics and collectors as a "Grand Cru in all but name," often commanding higher prices and prestige than many official Grand Crus. Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé, the historical titan of the village, owns a tiny 0.56-hectare parcel of this fabled site, located just downslope from their Musigny Grand Cru.
Wine Description
The Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Les Amoureuses presents a brilliant, deep ruby-to-purple colour. It features a hauntingly aromatic nose of wild strawberries, loganberries, and red currants, layered with sophisticated notes of violets, rose petals, damp earth, and a "chiseled" limestone minerality. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and "suave," showcasing silky, suave tannins and a vibrant, "glassy" energy. It is characterized by its incredible transparency of terroir, leading to a long, perfumed finish with hints of orange peel, truffle, and savory spice. Under the direction of winemaker Jean Lupatelli, recent vintages (like 2022) have introduced 50% whole-cluster fermentation to add even more structural quality and aromatic lift while maintaining the wine's legendary charm. It typically has an ABV of 13% to 13.5%.
