What you will taste
Musigny is famous for reds, yet on a few rows of this legendary hill Domaine de Vogüé grows Chardonnay, and almost nobody else may do so. For twenty years these grapes were sold under a modest label while the young vines matured; only recently has the wine again carried its true name. Expect ripe lemon, hazelnut and a cool touch of stone, with a honeyed depth that unfolds slowly. It is one of the rarest whites of Burgundy, and it tastes like it.
The sommelier’s note
«Open it a good half hour ahead and do not serve it ice cold: at cellar temperature it shows why collectors chase it. One bottle, one evening, no distractions.»
How this wine opens up
From the first pour to the last glass — follow it through the evening.
On arrival
Let it land
Stand the bottle upright and let it rest from the journey. Aim for 12 degrees, a little cooler than the room.

Citrus and stone
The first glass is bright and mineral: lemon, a cool stony edge, a hint of hazelnut behind.
