2002 | Domaine Ghislaine Barthod | Bourgogne Rouge

Really stinky, dank, vegetal aromas at first amongst a sweetness of fruit. Much nicer on the palate, with broad, juicy cherry fruit that is quite densely textured. Good acidity, this is fruity with a bit of stuffing.

Producer Information

Domaine Ghislaine Barthod is one of the most prominent producers in the Chambolle-Musigny appellation of Burgundy, known for its intense, ageworthy wines from the Pinot Noir grape variety. The estate was initially founded by Marcel Noëllat in the early 20th Century. Marcel's daughter married Gaston Barthod, an officer in the French army, then stationed in Dijon. The pair continued to work on and develop the domaine over the decades. Barthod's daughter Ghislaine took over after Gaston's death in 1999, having effectively run the estate for the previous decade or so. She and partner Louis Boillot combine vineyard work across both their respective domaines, although the two estates are run as separate entities and the wines made in their respective wineries. The Barthod estate is made up of around six hectares (15 acres) of vineyard. Over half of this is split between eight well-sited plots in Chambolle-Musigny's premier cru vineyards, with the remaining land in Villages-level and AOC Bourgogne parcels. Holdings in Chambolle-Musigny premier cru sites include 0.8 hectares (two acres) in Les Cras, 0.7 hectares (1.7 acres) in Aux Beaux Bruns, 0.4 (one acre) hectares in Les Veroilles and around a quarter of a hectare (0.6 acres) in both Les Fuées and Les Baudes. The Bons Batons Bourgogne Rouge from a vineyard just across the road from the Chambolle-Musigny border is well-known for its value for money. Grapes are partially destemmed before fermentation with punchdowns in open-topped wooden vats. The wines are then matured in barriques for up to 20 months – the top wines see no more than 30 percent new oak.
