A blend of grapes from vines in two lieux-dits vineyards in the village of Vougeot, just a couple of kilometres from Chambolle, on clay-limestone soils. Aged for 12 months in 20% new oak barrels. Piercingly fresh, pretty, floral aromas and fruit on the nose, cherry and blackberry, with some earthy notes. The palate is more taut, with cranberry flavours and chalky acidity. The tautness and concentration of the '24 vintage make this one of the most enjoyable vintages of this cuvée to date. RKL
"The 2024 Bourgogne Rouge offers cranberry and strawberry scents on the nose with touches of lavender in the background. The palate is medium bodied with slightly firmer tannins than the Passetoutgrain, with a bit more bite and tension on the finish. Decent enough. Drinking Window: 2025-2030. 86 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com
"A fresh, bright and cool nose combines notes of both red and dark berries with those of earth and all but invisible wood. There is fine volume to the delicious and vibrant middle weight flavors that possess better than average depth and persistence for the appellation on the lightly austere finale. One to consider. Drink: 2027+. 86-89 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound
Producer Profile
Domaine Hudelot-Baillet, Chambolle-Musigny
This small 8-hectare domaine is based in the centre of Chambolle-Musigny and has excellent holdings in the premiers crus of 'Les Charmes' and 'Les Borniques', as well as a tiny parcel in the Bonnes Mares Grand Cru. Hâutes Côtes de Nuits is also a strength, with the vines lying on the hills above Chambolle itself. This reputation of the domaine is largely due to the efforts of Dominique Le Guen, who began working here in 1998, after a career in the French airforce, when his father-in-law was reaching retirement. At that stage, Dominique, a Breton by birth, had no winemaking experience. His first solus vintage was in 2002. The domaine was almost moribund when he took it on, but his meticulous, hardworking approach has made it "one to watch".
Dominique's winemaking approach includes destemming and cool maceration for the red wines, with punching down, remontage and delestage, to extract the supple tannins from the skins rather than the pips. The wines are aged in between a third and a half new oak.
