The vines, planted between 1954 and 1966, are rooted in a thin layer of red clay (30-50cm deep) over limestone bedrock. This unique terroir, combined with the specific location of this vineyard, produces some of the most sought-after wines in the world, with a clear focus on elegance, structure, and minerality.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ng-star-inserted\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"ng-star-inserted\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ng-star-inserted\"\u003eThe Wine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ng-star-inserted\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ng-star-inserted\"\u003eThe 2022 vintage is made with 100% destemmed Pinot Noir and a 15-20 day ambient yeast fermentation and maceration in open wooden vats. The wine then ages for 18 months in barrel with 15% new oak, before being racked twice and transferred to stainless steel for a further 3 months of aging before bottling. The resulting wine has an intensity that is unique to this vineyard. Expect a complex array of red and dark fruit, with subtle floral notes and an earthy character. The palate is silky, with fine-grained tannins and a long, persistent finish. This wine seeks to perfectly express the grace and beauty that is Les Amoureuses.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ng-star-inserted\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"ng-star-inserted\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ng-star-inserted\"\u003eThe People\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ng-star-inserted\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ng-star-inserted\"\u003eThe Mugnier family history began in the 1880s with Frédéric Mugnier’s great-great-grandfather, who founded a very successful company producing aperitifs, absinthes, cassis, liqueurs and aromatized wine, and who began buying vineyards from the Marey-Monge family in the middle of the phylloxera crisis. The current Frédéric Mugnier took over the estate in 1985, and he has a deep dedication to the vines, combined with a philosophical approach to winemaking, resulting in a style that is both thoughtful and expressive. He is guided by both his engineering background, as well as a clear aesthetic ideal. Mugnier's approach is best expressed by a desire to \"seek the absence of Fred\" in his wines, aiming for the purest expression of terroir as possible.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VinMarket","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46688423379167,"sku":null,"price":1800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0439\/7436\/1248\/files\/P1140254.jpg?v=1736916532","url":"https:\/\/danverwinemerchant.com\/products\/jf-mugnier-chambolle-musigny-1er-cru-les-amoureuses-2022","provider":"Denver Wine Merchant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
