2023 Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg Les Chaignots, Nuit Saint Georges Premier Cru, France Burgenland Southern border with Chassagne

Southern border with Chassagne

yet the freshness is still there

The 2021 was hand-harvested and largely destemmed

To me it sounds odd that such a premier terroir is indicated as a subzone of a larger area

found on the right bank is regarded best for full-bodied hearty reds

2023 Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg Les Chaignots, Nuit Saint Georges Premier Cru, France Burgenland Southern border with Chassagne"Chaignots" comes from the word "Chasne", old French for "chne" (oak), as there were originally oak trees in this area. Georges Mugneret purchased the parcel in 1971. Brown limestone soil with very little clay in this sloping and pebbly parcel east facing. Excellent drainage.
