A Chambolle-Musigny premier cru from a Vosne-Romanée domaine, made in quantities so small it barely counts as a cuvée — about 1,000 bottles a year from 2.5 hectares of Les Plantes. The climat sits directly below the village on the eastern edge of Les Charmes, at 220 meters with an east exposure on mostly chalky limestone, and the vines here are around 75 years old, which goes a long way toward explaining the depth this wine finds at premier cru level rather than grand. Patrice Cacheux, the fourth generation, took over from his father Jacques in 1994 and has moved the farming toward biodynamics — no herbicides, no insecticides, no anti-rot treatments — while in the cellar the fruit is fully de-stemmed, cold-macerated for a week, and fermented with native yeasts. Aging is 18 months in new 228-liter French oak, which sounds bold until you taste how much old-vine fruit is underneath it. And 2017 is a genuinely friendly red Burgundy vintage: drinkable now, with enough structure and terroir detail to reward patience.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast duck breast with cherries, squab, veal loin with morels, mushroom risotto, or a well-aged Comté; also lovely with coq au vin.

Tasting Profile

Medium-bodied and perfumed, with red cherry, raspberry and rose aromas alongside a touch of vanilla and sweet spice from the new oak. Bright acidity, fine-grained tannins, and a savory, chalky-mineral finish that lingers. Silky rather than powerful, in the Chambolle style, with enough concentration to hold together for years.
