Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru 2005 0,75L

The 2005 Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru is an exceptional Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy’s most prestigious vineyards. The Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru, located in Gevrey-Chambertin, is known for its refined elegance, mineral-driven complexity, and remarkable aging potential.

The 2005 vintage was an outstanding year in Burgundy, producing wines with intense concentration, structured tannins, and remarkable balance. This wine presents a deep ruby-red color with hints of garnet at the edges.

On the nose, it reveals an exquisite bouquet of dark cherries, wild strawberries, blackberries, and violets, complemented by earthy undertones, truffle, graphite, and subtle spice notes of cinnamon and cloves. With age, it develops more savory nuances of forest floor, leather, and dried herbs.

On the palate, this Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru is both powerful and refined, showcasing silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and an exceptionally long, mineral-driven finish. The flavors of ripe red and black fruits, along with hints of black tea, anise, and crushed rocks, create a layered and complex experience.

This wine has remarkable aging potential, with the structure to evolve beautifully over 20+ years. It pairs wonderfully with roasted game, duck, beef dishes, and aged cheeses, allowing its depth and elegance to fully express themselves.
