We just landed some outstanding treasures from Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier, including his incredible monopole bottling, the Clos de la Maréchale. Spanning three compelling vintages, the 17, 18, and 19 are all starting to drink well, but will continue to improve and reward your patience, especially if you prefer elegant, aromatic Pinot. These are unique bottlings in more ways than one!
Hailing from the southernmost edge of the Côte de Nuits, where the vineyards of Nuits St. Georges trail off, sits Mugnier’s walled-off 1er Cru, the Clos de la Maréchale. There, in the hamlet of Prémeaux-Prissy, Mugnier is leading a renaissance in this "forgotten" appellation, alongside other heavy hitters like Liger-Belair and Clos de l’Arlot. But it is the old vines and limestone bedrock of this vineyard that set it apart from other producers, offering up sumptuous, perfumed wines with fine structure.
Winemaking is fairly uniform at the estate, with the reds de-stemmed then fermented in open-topped vats. 18 months in oak – just 15% new – allows the nuances of each site to really shine. It’s certainly true they have enviable raw materials to work with, but in a span of 20 years, it’s really Frédéric’s touch that has single-handedly turned this address into one of the region’s stars, crafting can’t miss bottles.
