Tasting Notes

This Chambolle-Musigny is very fine with beautiful red fruits.

Domaine Hudelot-Noellat is an iconic producer in the Côte de Nuits. The style of the Domaine is defined by elegance and purity. The vines of the Chambolle-Musigny were planted in 1955 with fine clones of Pinot Noir.

A fine plump mid purple. There is a depth of fine raspberry fruit, darkish in register, Fresh red pepper behind at the back, the vintage style indicating bare maturity – but that is fine for my palate. Drink from 2025-2028. 88-91 points, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. 100% Pinot Noir.

"You’ll be impressed by the charm of this Chambolle-Musigny. It is such a beautiful lady of a wine. The body has very fine lines, a pretty fruit and structure."

Charles Van Canneyt, Alain Hudelot-Noellat’s grandson, took over the Domaine in 2008 and for the last few vintages he has been entirely in charge of making the wines and he does so incredibly well. The wines have never been as good as they are now. Charles has a very clear approach when making his wines concerning the style he wants to achieve- elegance and purity. In order to do this Charles is careful not to overpower the taste of the wine made from his prestigious vineyards, which are a tremendous asset. With an ideal location, old vines to very old vines and fine clones of Pinot Noir, the challenge is to give the natural expression of the grapes the strongest voice. In 2014, Charles used around 20 to 25% of the whole bunch during the winemaking. Furthermore, he is only using natural yeast, fermenting the must in concrete vats and the maturation is long but with the right balance of oak used. The oak component rarely shows in the wines, only through subtle notes and aromas. This is a brilliant style of winemaking that champions the Pinot Noir varietal.
