Aromas of pomegranate, cranberry, and redcurrants glide seamlessly, leading to a precise, graceful palate that delivers exceptional succulence and enduring flavours.
Producer: Francois Millet, the esteemed head winemaker at Comte George de Vogue since 1986, is a revered figure in Burgundy winemaking circles. Within the renowned Chambolle-Musigny appellation lies Les Foucheres, a distinguished 'lieu-dit' vineyard, where Millet's craftsmanship vividly captures the essence of this terroir.
This wine is a stunning example of Burgundy.
In Chambolle, a natural amphitheater begins at the summit of the slope from Les Danguerrins and extends northwards around Les Porlottes to Les Clos, featuring predominantly east-facing vineyards.
Positioned at the base of this amphitheatre, also facing east, is Les Fouchères. The name Fouchères originates from the old French term "fayard" denoting beechwood, although now devoid of these trees which were originally planted there long ago. The site balances the amphitheatre's coolness and the optimal fruit maturity of the 1er Cru Les Borniques lower on the mid-slope. Abundant rocky elements characterize the terroir.
