Domaine Jacques Frédéric Mugnier - Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru - Les Amoureuses 2020
Domaine Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier is located in Chambolle-Musigny , in Burgundy . The estate was founded in 1863 by Frédéric Mugnier , an alcoholic from Dijon. In 1950, following the economic crisis and the world war, Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier, great-grandson of the first Frédéric, chose to sell the spirits business and rent the vineyard to a merchant in Nuits-Saint-Georges. The Chambolle vineyard contract ended in 1978 and 6 years later, Frédéric Mugnier, son of Jacques-Frédéric, assumed full responsibility for the family estate. The latest addition to the estate was the return of Clos de la Maréchale to the estate in 2004, radically altering its size and allowing for a new and better organization. Today, around Jocelyne and Frédéric Mugnier , the permanent team of the Domaine is attentive to every detail in order to bring from the vine to the cellar the best of nature, with minimal interference from technological practices.
The Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses is made from Pinot Noir from a plot of 52.85 ares called Les Amoureuses. The youngest vines were planted in 1966, the majority between 1954 and 1956. Annual production varies between 900 and 2,700 bottles. This wine will develop after at least 7 years.
