For the first time—at the instigation of her son, Clément—Barthod elected to vinify a barrel of the 2017 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Noirots separately instead of incorporating it into her decidedly superior Chambolle Village. Offering up expressive aromas of licorice, blackberries, blood orange and dark chocolate, it's medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, with a deep core of dark fruit and chalky structuring tannins that lend it a more mineral profile than this year's Beaux Bruns.
