At the beginning of the 20th century, this estate founded in 1863 by Frédéric Mugnier, a liquor-maker in Dijon, included nearly twenty hectares of the best vineyards spread over Chambolle-Musigny and Nuits-Saint-Georges. In 1950, following the economic crisis of the 1930s and the world war, Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier, great-grandson of the first Frédéric, chose to sell the liquor business, and lease the vineyard out to a negociant in Nuits-Saint-Georges. The contract on the Chambolle vineyard ended in 1978 and 6 years later Frédéric Mugnier, son of Jacques-Frédéric, assumed full responsibility for the family estate.

This gorgeous Nuits-Saint-Georges is from a 20-acre monopole owned by Frédéric Mugnier. For decades, the family sold the fruit from this site to Domaine Faiveley to vinify and bottle, but today they domaine bottle Clos de la Marechale exclusively. Frédéric Mugnier de-stems 100% of the fruit and uses about 20% new wood in the vinification. Burghound Allen Meadows considers Frédéric Mugnier to be a 'very careful taster' and writes favorably on the full range.

The 2018 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos de la Maréchale 1er Cru was tasted from a blend of five cuvées. It has an attractive bouquet of mainly black fruit laced with black tea and bay leaf notes, plus touches of rose petal in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins, tending more toward a red fruit profile, with wonderful salinity on the finish. Good potential. Excellent. 90-92 Points.
