Jean Michel Guillon Chambolle Musigny 2021
£99.95
Why Mark chose this
Chambolle-Musigny is the most perfumed and silky village in all of Burgundy, and Jean-Michel Guillon is a producer who was spotted and encouraged by the great Henri Jayer himself. His wines have a clear style and a genuine sense of place. The 2021 vintage in Burgundy produced wines of real freshness and definition rather than sheer weight, and for Chambolle that's often a blessing. This is village-level Burgundy that shows the appellation at its most charming.

Tasting Notes
Born in Paris, Jean-Michel Guillon arrived at Gevrey-Chambertin in 1980 when he retired from aeronautics. With a special love for the use of new oak barrels, he jokingly refers to himself as “the biggest oak barrel consumer” in Gevrey Chambertin. He has built up a Domaine of reputation from scratch with the help of his good friends and mentors like Rene Galland and the well-renowned Henri Jayer. Their wine range includes many prestigious appellations like Mazis-Chambertin, Clos de Vougeot, Gevrey-Chambertin, Morey Saint-Denis, etc. As Allen Meadows commented: “Jean-Michel Guillon’s wines retain a clear sense of style and grace and remain identifiably Pinot Noir”. Jean-Michel Guillon was also elected as Winemaker of the Year 2020 by the famous French wine guide book - Guide Hachette.
