Domaine Mugneret-Gibourg’s 2016 Nuits-St-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots is a dark-fruited, silken Burgundy, layering cassis and raspberry with subtle spice, smoke and floral top notes. The palate is generous yet finely etched, with vibrant acidity and refined tannins driving a long, saline-tinged finish that shows both the elegance and firm backbone of the vintage.

Domaine Mugneret-Gibourg’s Nuits‑Saint‑Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots is a pure Pinot Noir from old vines high on the slope, giving a Nuits with a touch of Vosne‑like perfume: dark ruby in colour, marrying red and black fruits with floral, spicy and subtly earthy notes. Typically medium to full-bodied yet finely textured, it combines supple, powdery tannins and lively acidity with a long, elegant finish, offering both early charm and the depth to age gracefully.
