Gerard Seguin Chambolle-Musigny Derrière le Four comes from vines located at the top of Chambolle, behind the church and not far from the old village oven. The wines are the result of the soil on these rocks, a mixture of clayey soil and pebbles, which are very typical of this appellation. The Musigny, "Lords of the Village", is only a hundred meters away.
The vines on the plot are 25 to 30 years old and planted with fine Pinot Noirs. The vinification is traditional: hand-harvesting, total de-aging, cold maceration, then fermentation using native yeasts, then aging for 18 months on lees in barrels, 40% of which are new wood from Allier. In the mouth this wine has a lot of complexity, finesse and elegance.
Chambolle-Musigny is considered one of the top appellations in Burgundy for Pinot Noir, and the wines produced from the Derrière le Four vineyard are highly regarded by Burgundy enthusiasts.
Chambolle-Musigny Derrière le Four pairs well with a range of foods, including roasted meats, game birds, and dishes featuring mushrooms or truffles. It can also be enjoyed on its own as a sipping wine.
