Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Baudes

Les Baudes sits near the northern limit of Chambolle, immediately south of premier cru Les Sentiers, and just underneath the venerable grand cru Bonnes-Mares on the slope; Ghislaine owns just shy of a quarter-hectare of 45-year-old vines here. This authoritative, layered wine combines firm acidity, sappy red fruits, and a brooding minerality that intertwines with relatively large-scaled tannins to create an overall impression of density.
