Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses Lucien Le Moine 2017

The wine

This wine has a deep, ruby colour and carries notes of flowers such as rose with hints of chilli. On the palate, it is surprisingly fresh with delicate mineral notes. Produced by a Beaune estate belonging to a couple who are passionate about Burgundian wines, this cuvée is a revelation of ripe fruits through a structured body.

About the Producer Lucien Le Moine

Lucien Le Moine is a haute-couture trader/farmer maison created by Mounir Saouma and Rotem Brakin, a Lebanese couple. After the husband spent some time in a monastery and a first attempt at the art of making wine, then embarked on enology studies, he created his structure in 1999 to offer wine from the finest terroirs. The name of the maison comes from the nickname that his friends gave him as a result of his education in the Cistercian cloister: "Le Moine", the Monk. Lucien was the name given to him by the monks. Today, he produces 38 different crus, ranging from village wines to grand crus. The vinification and élevage are very precise and well done, as delicately and naturally as possible. A must-see.
