Estate History

At the heart of Burgundy, **Domaine Douhairet Porcheret** carries on the legacy of fine winemaking, guided by respect for the terroir and a passion for authentic expression. The **Musigny Grand Cru** is the rarest and most prestigious jewel of the domaine, crafted from one of the most legendary climats of the Côte de Nuits. This exceptional cuvée reflects the purity, depth, and elegance that have made Musigny a symbol of Burgundy’s greatest Pinot Noir.

Terroir

Located above Clos de Vougeot and neighboring Chambolle-Musigny, the **Musigny Grand Cru** vineyard features thin clay-limestone soils with excellent drainage. These conditions, combined with an ideal exposure, allow Pinot Noir to achieve perfect balance between power and finesse, with remarkable aromatic complexity and aging potential.

On the palate, the wine is silky and profound, with fine-grained tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, layered finish marked by mineral purity and floral elegance.

An exceptional Musigny Grand Cru — powerful, delicate, and beautifully matured, offering a perfect harmony of aromatic depth and silky texture.
