Domaine Lucien Muzard Santenay Champs Claude Vieilles Vignes 2022

Our Verdict

Very limited.

9999Nine generations of Muzards precede Claude and Herve, who today control Domaine Lucien Muzard across 16 ha of vineyards in Santenay, Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny Montrachet and Pommard. The family can trace its roots back to 1645, but it was not until the two sons, Claude and Herve took over the domaine from Lucien in 1995 that it began bottling at the estate rather than selling to negociants. Today 85% of the production is red wine.

"This is a big cuvée, from a foudre of 12 barrels dimension plus 17 actual barrels. And it is a good one! A slightly darker purple, with a beautiful bouquet, the darker side of raspberries, this is really very harmonious on the palate, still with its welcome point of acidity, juicy and racy together." Jasper Morris M.W., October 2023.
