Chambolle Musigny Les Herbues Red 2022,

Fréderic Cossard

This Chambolle-Musigny "Les Herbues" is an organic, natural white wine produced in Burgundy by Frédéric Cossard. It comes from the Les Herbues vineyard, from which it takes its name. Made from 100% Pinot Noir, it is classified under the Burgundy Chambolle-Musigny AOP.

Vinification

The Les Herbues plot is located between 250 and 300 meters above sea level. The clayey terroir, exposed to the east, rests on hard, fissured limestone formations that allow the roots to plunge into the subsoil. The Pinot Noir grapes macerate in whole bunches. Aging is approximately one year in barrels.

Tasting

Beautiful garnet color, finesse, elegance, density and uprightness. This Chambolle-Musigny “Les Herbues” is a complex and delicate red wine based on the aromas of raspberry, candied strawberry and violet with a touch of undergrowth, licorice and cocoa. Floral finish reminiscent of red rose. This clear and silky wine will be a delight with a gourmet meal as well as with local dishes. It is of course very compatible with Red Meats, game, charcuterie and cured meats.

Between viticulture and trade

At Frédéric Cossard, the work of the soil and the vines is done naturally: plowing by horse, biodynamics, no chemical fertilizers or weedkillers. The harvest, by hand, is carried out at full maturity. Frédéric Cossard's vintages are rare and sought-after, wines that are always highly anticipated but which sometimes require waiting.
