About this Item
Domaine Ghislaine Barthod is one of the most prominent producers in Chambolle-Musigny and is well-known for its intense, age-worthy Pinot Noirs. First established in the late 1920s as Barthod-Noëllat, when soldier Gaston Barthod married into Burgundy’s Noëllat family. In 1960, Gaston gave up his life in the military to manage the family vineyards. His daughter, Ghislaine, took over after his death in 1999. The estate holds just under 6 hectares of vines, with over half split between eight parcels in Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru vineyards and the rest in Villages-level and AOC Bourgogne plots. The strength of the domaine lies in its range of Chambolle wines, with eight separate Premier Cru bottlings. Extremely elegant and concentrated, the best wines will age gracefully for two decades.
Critics Ratings
‘This is also exceptionally fresh and bright with relatively deeply pitched aromas of primarily red and blue pinot fruit that are in keeping with the rich and intensely mineral-driven medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent depth of material on the firm, long and gorgeously balanced finish. This is terrific juice though note that patience is part of the price of entry. A knockout. Drink 2019+.’ – Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 94/100 (Jan 2012)
'Lively and fresher than the 2010. Very long and charming but probably at or approaching peak. Just what burgundy lovers seek ...' Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 18/20 (Jun 2022)
