Domaine Lécheneaut is a Burgundy winery based in Nuits-Saint-Georges known for its Pinot Noir. It farms 25 acres of vineyards in 18 different appellations in the Côte de Nuits. Lécheneaut also grows small amounts of Chardonnay and Aligoté within its portfolio. The domaine was founded at the end of the 1950s by Fernand Lécheneaut with a little more than 2ha (5 acres) of vineyards in Nuits-Saint-Georges, Chambolle-Musigny and Morey-Saint-Denis. During its early years, the domaine sold bulk wine to négociants. In the 1980s, Fernand's sons Philippe and Vincent took over and in 1987 began expanding the domaine's vineyard holdings, while beginning to bottle wines at the estate. The new Lécheneaut plots included several premier cru vineyards in Chambolle-Musigny and Gevrey-Chambertin.
The Lecheneaut Chambolle Musigny 2016 showcases the finesse of Pinot Noir from Burgundy, crafted by the meticulous Domaine Lecheneaut. This wine is sourced from old vines and reflects the low yields of the frost-affected vintage, resulting in concentrated flavors. Aromatic notes of dark berries, floral hints, and spices create an inviting bouquet. On the palate, it reveals a blend of minerality and ripe fruit, with a nuanced finish marked by cherry pit and herbal undertones. The wine's structure is elegant, with a balance of acidity and tannins, promising further development with age. This bottling is a true expression of its terroir, aged for about 12-16 months in French oak.
