Marchand - Tawse Chambolle Musigny Village

TASTING NOTES FROM THE CURATOR

Mad with Pinot Noir grapes from Chambolle Musigny, this Marchand-Tawse Burgundy is complex and beautiful. An energetic wine, it has a bright ruby color that darkens over time. On the nose, you get a bouquet of violets, with notes of orange peel and kirsch. It’s well-balanced on the palate, with a crisp acidity and a saline finish.

PREPARATIONS AND PAIRINGS

Pair the Marchand-Tawse Chambolle Musigny Village with cheeses like Reblochon or Brillat-Savarin, and cured meats. It also goes great with roast lamb, roast veal, or sauteed garlic butter mushrooms.

A CANADIAN COLLABORATION

Maison Marchand-Tawse is a joint venture formed in 2010 by native Quebecois, Pascal Marchand, who worked in Domaine Comte Armand, and Moray Tawse of the Tawse Winery in Ontario. These two Canadians created this collaboration initially with focus directed on negociant releases, but as dreams and ambitions do, it became much more. Marchand-Tawse is based in Beaune, and produces a range of wines from regional Bourgogne to Grand Cru, from Pinot Noir to Chardonnay.
