Dominique Laurent Chambolle Musigny At the end of the 1980s, Dominique Laurent invented the concept of haute-couture wine merchant, specializing in the breeding at the highest level of small quantities of cuvées chosen for the exceptional quality of their plant material (old vines of pinot end). The very particular way of keeping the wines for a long time on the lees, without racking and with the minimum or no sulfur at all, makes the wines very difficult to judge before they are bottled and the aeration they then receive.
