Additional Info

In all other years, this village wine goes simply by Chambolle-Musigny, but in the 2016 vintage Jérôme made a special label, "Cuvée Jeanne," in honor of the birth of his daughter. (He did the same in 2009 with his Morey-St.-Denis for his first son, Gabin, and in 2013 with his Gevrey for his second son Léon.)
