The Burgundian house of Domaine Jacques-Frederic Mugnier is located in Chambolle-Musigny and is particularly known for its classic example of Musigny Grand Cru wine made from the Pinot Noir grape. The chateau’s history began in the 1880s when Frederic Mugnier established a successful company in Dijon known for producing aperitifs, absinthes, cassis, liquors and aromatized wine, and today, although producing vastly different products, is run by his great-great-grandson by the same name. Along with their grand vin, Jacques-Frederic Mugnier makes wine from Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru vineyard as well as two premier cru wines from Les Fuees and Les Amoureuses vineyard and a village level wine. Current winemaking methods do their best to honor the great terroir that they have acquired over the centuries in Burgundy.
The J.F. Mugnier Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses 2017 is a prestigious Pinot Noir from a celebrated 5.4-ha vineyard in Burgundy, often regarded as an unofficial Grand Cru. This wine showcases the unique terroir with its thin, chalky limestone and pebbly soils, resulting in a refined expression of fruit and earth. The nose reveals aromas of raspberries, rose petals, and blood orange, complemented by a hint of new oak. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, with a supple texture, fine tannins, and vibrant acidity, delivering intensity without heaviness. The wine is characterized by its elegance and precision, making it accessible earlier than other vintages. Production is limited due to the small vineyard size and low-intervention winemaking techniques.
