Domaine Mugneret-Gibourg

Marie-Christine Mugneret guided me through their latest vintage at their winery in Vosne. “The 2022 was easier than 2023,” she explains. “It was a ‘quiet’ season. We had some rain during spring, just at the right moment. So, everything was good. Picking began on September 1, and the weather was fine during this period, though we were anxious about keeping the red fruit and the freshness. The alcohol levels are all around 13%. The wines are matured in barrels from four cooperages: Rousseau, François Frère, Cavin and Tremeaux, from just outside Beaune.” This is one of the most beloved Domaines in the Côte d’Or, partly because of the wines’ quality and partly because the Mugneret sisters, Marie-Christine and Marie-Andrée Nauleau-Mugneret, are two of the most convivial winemakers you can meet. They are refreshingly devoid of the airs and graces some of their fellow Vosne winemakers can exhibit. This was a strong set of 2022s crowned, not by the Ruchottes-Chambertin, but by their sensational Clos de Vougeot. I was also smitten by two of their cuvées from Nuits Saint-Georges: Les Chaignots and Les Vignes Rondes. Their wines are a masterclass in purity and refinement. Prices have edged upwards in recent vintages as demand outstrips supply but the wines remain better value than elsewhere.
