Now in Stock! Superb Vintage, Francois Bertheau Village and 1er Cru
It is always a joy to enjoy a bottle of Chambolle-Musigny from Francois Bertheau. The domaine currently owns about 6 hectares of vineyards scattered over Chambolle-Musigny and also in Bonnes-Mares, the only Grand Cru from the domaine. Half of the vineyards are village level, and this is a fantastic domaine that represents the typicity of the terroirs. They express crystalline purity of fruits by having a mild and soft influence of oak. The production is phenomenally low at around 1,300 cases per year, by definition, these wines will be much harder to find as time passes by.
We are delighted to offer a selection from Francois Bertheau and they present these terroir-driven Chambolle-Musigny with various characters:
· Chambolle-Musigny Village – Very appealing when young and excellent value
· Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru – A blend of a Baudes (located just below Bonnes Mares), Groseilles, Gruenchers, and Noirots which gives complexity from the blend
· Chambolle-Musigny Les Charmes 1er Cru – From a 0.66 ha parcel, it is complex and offers opulent spicy flavours

Ripe and very fresh aromas include those of both red and blue pinot fruit laced with subtle spice wisps. The nicely rich, plump and rounded middle weight flavors conclude in a mildly warm if persistent finale. This refreshing effort should be approachable young.

Here there is enough reduction to knock down the fruit though it's clearly ripe. Otherwise, there is slightly better intensity to the bigger and more voluminous medium weight flavors that possess solid depth and persistence on the balanced and more structured finale. This too should drink reasonably well on the younger side.

HK$1,450 per bottle
91-93pts Allen Meadows
A perfumed and exceptionally pretty nose is comprised mostly by the essence of red currant trimmed in subtle spice and floral nuances. The rich and beautifully textured medium-bodied flavors exude evident minerality on the clean, youthfully austere and notably more complex finale. This is very well-balanced and in contrast to the prior two wines, one that is going to require at least some patience.
