2023 Lucien Le Moine Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Aux Combottes

Among Burgundy’s legendary villages, Chambolle-Musigny is often described as the home of elegance, finesse, and perfume. It is a place where Pinot Noir reaches an almost weightless level of beauty — delicate yet complex, silky yet incredibly powerful in its own way. The 2023 Lucien Le Moine Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru “Aux Combottes” captures that signature magic with the precision and craftsmanship that have made Lucien Le Moine one of Burgundy’s most fascinating producers. The Aux Combottes Premier Cru vineyard sits in the heart of Chambolle-Musigny, an area famous for producing some of the most graceful Pinot Noir in the world. The terroir combines limestone soils with excellent exposure, creating wines that offer Chambolle’s famous floral elegance while carrying the structure and depth expected from a Premier Cru site. Made from 100% Pinot Noir, the 2023 vintage delivers a beautiful combination of perfume and power. The nose opens with aromas of wild strawberry, red cherry, raspberry, violet, and rose petals, followed by subtle notes of spice, forest floor, and earthy minerality. On the palate, it is refined and silky, with fine tannins, vibrant acidity, and a lingering finish that showcases the purity of great Chambolle-Musigny.
