2022 Mugneret-Gibourg Nuits-St-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots
Exceptional Balance

Posted by Ian McFadden

There are few red Burgundies that we love as much as those produced by the Mugneret family.

Their wines are texturally beguiling, transparent, and supremely elegant.

In 2022, the wines of this domaine are incredible. There’s an extra dimension of depth and breadth to these wines from the top to the bottom of the range.

Mugneret-Gibourg's Chaignots may be the most elegant example of Nuits around. The 1er Cru Les Chaignots is situated on the northern side of Nuits, abutting Vosne-Romanée. 

The 2022 possesses the gorgeous weave of spicy, floral aromatics of Vosne, and the saturating, muscular palate of Nuits. What's most striking about the 2022 is its harmony and overall composition. There's a velvety texture with incredible balance and elegance. 

I'll wrap this up. Mugneret-Gibourg is one of the most loved and consistent producers of red Burgundy. For fans of their Chaignots, the 2022 is not to be missed.

William Kelley, The Wine Advocate: "The 2022 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots is ripe and flamboyant, bursting with aromas of sweet berries and cherries mingled with those petals, orange zest and spices. Medium to full-bodied, rich and layered, with a broad and textural attack that segues into a seamless core of fruit, this will offer a broad drinking window."
