Tasting Notes
In the glass, expect a bright ruby color with graceful translucence. The nose typically opens with red cherry, raspberry, violet, and subtle spice, layered with earthy, mineral nuances and a touch of oak complexity. On the palate, the wine is refined and energetic, with silky tannins, vivid red fruit, and a long, persistent finish. The old-vine concentration gives it extra dimension and structure, suggesting excellent aging potential over the next 8–12 years, and likely longer in a strong cellar.

Production
Sourced from old vines in Chambolle-Musigny, the wine reflects the cooler, limestone-rich terroir that gives the appellation its perfume, delicacy, and mineral lift. Domaine Lignier-Michelot is known for careful vineyard work and attentive harvesting, with fruit typically picked by hand at optimal ripeness to preserve purity and balance. Vinification is carried out in a traditional Burgundian style, with gentle extraction and aging in oak to support the wine without overpowering its finesse. The goal is to let the character of the vineyard and vintage speak clearly, especially in a concentrated year like 2022.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for roast duck, guinea fowl, veal, mushroom risotto, or simply prepared poultry dishes with herbs. It also pairs beautifully with soft cheeses and dishes featuring earthy components such as truffle or morel mushrooms. Serve at 15–17°C, and decant for 30–60 minutes if drinking young to help the wine open up.
