Barthod’s first vintage from this vineyard was in 2009, after it was purchased from Pousse d’Or. The parcel of 60-year-old vines sits north of Chambolle, directly below Les Fuées and Les Cras on less steep terrain (separated by the Premier Cru Derrière la Grange). The clay in Gruenchers is deeper and whiter than in Les Fuées, and Ghislaine describes the style as lying somewhere between Les Fuées and Aux Beaux Bruns (which aligns with its geographic position). Gruenchers sees 30% new oak, which fits well with the wine’s deeply textured, fleshy nature. Sadly, with only 0.18 hectares of vines, we have very little to go around.

Reviews

“The 2023 Chambolle-Musigny Les Gruenchers 1er Cru has a little reduction on the nose, yet one can still detect the very finely delineated ripe strawberry and cranberry scents coiled up alongside hints of orange pith and potpourri. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins. It has a notch more in the way of ripeness and opulence, with a tad candied on the finish hinting at slightly later-picked fruit, though it retains control on the peppery finish that falls away a little quicker than Barthod's other cuvées.”
91-93 points, Neal Martin, Vinous
“Mid purple, currently showing the oak a little more than some. Then more fruit fragrance develops, fine-boned on the palate, with additional energy further back. Something of a sleeper, heading in the right direction.”
92-94 points, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
