Good to Know: The charm and sophistication of Chambolle-Musigny wines reveal themselves through refined elegance that is already noticeable to the eye. These wines allure with their vibrant ruby hue, enhanced by bright and sparkling reflections. Their distinctive aroma is composed of violet and tiny red fruits. Chambolle-Musigny wines are rich, floral, and intricate, leaving the palate enveloped in silky smoothness. Although these wines are delicately fleshy, they maintain a robust and lasting structure, complemented by gentle tannins.
A Bresse capon of subtle texture pairs excellently with the fluid yet tenacious tannins of Chambolle-Musigny, especially the Premiers Crus variety.
The 'Paths' are an allusion to the narrow paths of old, once utilized by foot for vine harvesting.
