Chambolle Musigny Les Fuées Louis Jadot

Vineyards situation : Chambolle Musigny lies just north of Vougeot and South of Morey Saint Denis. There are 24 Premiers Crus and 2 Grands Crus. It is a very well know commune despite its small size.

Characteristics : The Chambolle Musigny vineyards is unique in the Côte de Nuits for the chalky composition of its soils just over a hard rocky bedrock which stress the vines. "Les Fuées" is situated just near the "Bonnes Mares Grand Cru" vineyard. There
are a lot of hard stones. It has an East exposure.

Wine making : This wine is fermented in vats for 3-4 weeks and aged 18-20 months in oak barrels before bottling.

Winemaker's comments / Gastronomy : "Les Fuées" is on the same vein as the Bonnes Mares. The feminine wine is very
elegant and delicate.. It has a quite deep colour and develops fruity, spicy aromas. Quite powerful with very fine tannins, this wine has a great potential of ageing. It will perfectly match with sophisticated dishes like meat ‘en sauce', "filet mignon", game and cheeses like "Reblochon".

Preservation : This wine will certainly improve up to 15 to 20 years in a good cellar.
