About this Item
The 2017 Côte de Nuits harvest was defined by severely reduced yields following dramatic spring frosts, yet the small quantities that achieved full ripeness produced wines of exceptional precision, aromatic purity and structured elegance across the finest Premier Cru vineyards of Chambolle-Musigny. Bouchard Père & Fils' 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Les Noirots earned 17 points from Richard Hemming MW at JancisRobinson.com. Les Noirots is a Premier Cru vineyard of Chambolle-Musigny situated at the northern boundary of the village towards the Grand Cru of Bonnes-Mares, its limestone and clay soils producing wines that combine the characteristic feminine elegance of Chambolle with additional body and power drawn from proximity to one of the Côte de Nuits' most muscular and celebrated Grand Crus. The wine is produced from 100% Pinot Noir, aged 12 to 14 months in French oak with 40 to 50% new barrels.

Critics Ratings
“Fresh and vibrant with good definition to the red cherry fruit and nicely integrated oak spice. Length too – this is conventional but expressive.” - Richard Hemming MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Jan 2019)
