You could view it as just an inheritance of what is now a legendary estate, but that would be shortsighted. The Mugneret sisters quickly pivoted their lives' direction when their father passed in 1988, and all they've done in the time since is elevate the domaine to the upper echelon of all Burgundy estates in existence.

Domaine Georges Mugneret Gibourg

The Domaine Mugneret-Gibourg was founded in 1933 by a husband and wife duo, and later Dr. Georges Mugneret helped to expand the holdings all while holding down a full time job as an ophthalmologist. Upon his passing in 1988, Christine and Mary-Andrée took it upon themselves to devote their energies to their family's legacy. They combined their father's holdings (once named Domaine Georges Mugneret) and the historical family estate into one, producing a full range of divine wines from Bourgogne to the Grand Crus.

The Mugneret vineyards are tended carefully, with very little intervention aside from tilling between the rows. All grapes are harvested by hand and undergo a rigorous selection before de-stemming. In the cellar, the wines are fermented in tank and aged in anywhere from 10 (village)-70 (Grand Crus) percent new oak.

With some 8 hectares spread over 9 appellations, the holdings here are rich, encompassing a large swath of Burgundy from the Grand Cru Ruchottes-Chambertin all the way to Nuits-Saint-Georges. Even the Grand Cru wines show effortless energy, freshness and delicacy that is seldom matched by any producer of Pinot Noir. Safe to say, the sisters have only served to add to their family's legacy.

The 2009 Ruchottes-Chambertin is gorgeous today. It boasts considerable aromatic complexity and plenty of nuance in a sensual style that captures the essence of the vintage. The 2009 shows a little more depth and richness than the 2010 but still has plenty of site specific character. Finessed, silky tannins frame the exceptional finish. Today the Ruchottes give the immediate pleasure that is the hallmark of this vintage. I loved it. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2029. Sisters Marie-Andree and Marie-Christine Mugneret made some of the very best wines of the year. Their 2009s capture the silky, sexy personality of the vintage while maintaining a classic, mid-weight sense of structure.

The 2009 Ruchottes-Chambertin was 100% de-stemmed. It has a gorgeous bouquet with vivid scents of plush red cherry fruit, cassis, violets and a hint of vanilla remaining from some new oak to be subsumed. The palate is medium-bodied with an elegant, precise opening. It is embroidered with a perfect thread of acidity and gains momentum towards the finish that feels plush and sensual (not a million miles away from the 1999 stylistically). It needs three or four more years in bottle but there is great potential here. Tasted at the Ruchottes-Chambertin vertical in London.
