Domaine Ghislaine BARTHOD (Chambolle-Musigny) -- 2018 Tasted from Barrel

(Please read my general assessment of the 2018 vintage in the Côte d’ Or here.)

As I mentioned in my notes on Domaine Louis Boillot & Fils, son Clément worked with Ghislaine for the 2018 vintage and has taken over as of the 2019 vintage. 

Harvesting here began on 26 August. Yields were in the range of 30-35 hl/ha, about 25-30% less than in 2017. Malo-lactic fermentations finished in January and February.

As always, splendid wines here. The range of premiers crus has increased to eleven.
