Chambolle-Musigny is a small commune in the sub-region of the Côte de Nuits in Burgundy. It has less than 400 inhabitants but enjoys a widespread and historic reputation for its high quality wines. The village produces almost exclusively red wines from pinot noir. The classic Chambolle-Musigny wine is powerful, refined and fragrant. Along with Vosne-Romanée and Gevrey-Chambertin, the village is renowned for producing some of the best Pinot Noir wines on earth. The fragrance that characterizes the wines has earned Chambolle a reputation as the Volnay of the Côte de Nuits. A tiny amount of white wine is made from about half a hectare of Chardonnay grapes grown in the prestigious Musigny Grand Cru in the south of the appellation. No white wine is made under the village appellation or at the Premier Cru level.
(Le) Musigny is divided into two sections, Les Musigny and Les Petits Musigny, with slightly different soils and slopes. The latter is the home of the Chardonnay plot. However, about 70 percent of the fruit harvested from the two parcels is combined in a single bottle of Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé.
Bonnes-Mares is the other vineyard of the Grand Cru, located opposite Chambolle-Musigny. It generally produces more structured wines, but less round and fine than those of Musigny. A small parcel of Bonnes-Mares is located in Morey-Saint-Denis. (© Owner content, Wine-Searcher.)
The quality can vary between the premier crus. Les Amoureuses have soils very similar to Musigny and are widely considered to be the best. Les Charmes is also very much appreciated. It is also very similar to Musigny.
