Clos de la Maréchale Nuits St Georges 1er Cru

Established in 1863, the Mugnier family domaine survived economic crisis and world war to produce wines sought after across the world. Clos de la Maréchale, a monopole premier cru Burgundy from this legendary estate, is the only Mugnier wine outside Chambolle-Musigny. Its 9.5 hectares—organically farmed Pinot Noir on limestone-clay in Nuits-Saint-Georges—yield a wine that speaks softly yet authoritatively. Mugnier’s elegant touch shows in the nuanced use of whole bunches and low-impact élevage; the result is a cuvée of clarity and finesse. Expect floral notes, raspberry, and earthy undertones on a cool-fruited palate, with supple tannins and a long, mineral finish. Pairs seamlessly with roast duck, venison loin, or mushroom bourguignon. This Nuits-Saint-Georges Pinot Noir shows floral notes, raspberry, earthy detail and length, ideal with venison loin or mushroom bourguignon.
