Chambolle-Musigny is a French appellation located in Burgundy, more precisely in Côte de Nuits (Côte d'Or) wine region. The whole appellation includes twenty-five Premier Cru designations, as well as Musigny and Bonnes Mares as two Grand Cru vineyards with separate appellations.
The wines produced in the region are based on Pinot Noir and are generally regarded as one of the best expression of this renowned grape. Delicate and elegant Chambolle-Musigny wines typically display aromas of red fruit and violets that with age may develop into more complex notes of ripe fruit, truffles, and underbrush.
Because of its smooth and velvety texture, these wines perfectly pair with game meat, roasted lamb, and beef, as well as soft-center cheese varieties such as Brillat-Savarin or Reblochon.
