Viticulture & Vinification - The Wine - Domaines Mugneret-Gibourg et Georges Mugneret

<h1>Domaines Mugneret-Gibourg et Georges Mugneret</h1> <h3>Viticulture & Vinification - Le Vin</h3> During the harvest, the grapes are brought to the vathouse and selected for quality on a sorting table, the stems removed, and the remaining grapes placed in vats. After cold maceration lasting from four to five days, the alcoholic fermentation starts continues for approximately 10 days. The total vatting time lasts from 15 to 20 days. After decanting the fermented juice from the vats, and pneumatically pressing the grapes, the contents of each vat is then poured into oak barrels, to age for the next 18 months. This period of ageing is interspersed with racking, or removing the young wine from one cask to another, leaving the lees and sediment behind. Each appellation is then blended. The wines are bottled at the domain, and are neither fined nor filtered. <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/contact.php' title='Contact'>Contact</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/distributors.php' title='Distributors'>Distributors</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/history.php' title='History'>History</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/index.php' title='Home'>Home</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/news.php' title='News'>News</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/our-wines.php' title='Our Wines'>Our Wines</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/press-review.php' title='Press Review'>Press Review</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/the-domain.php' title='The Domain'>The Domain</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/viticulture-vinification-philosophie.php' title='Viticulture & Vinification - Philosophie'>Viticulture & Vinification - Philosophie</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/viticulture-vinification-wine.php' title='Viticulture & Vinification - The Wine'>Viticulture & Vinification - The Wine</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/viticulture-vinification-vigne.php' title='Viticulture et Vinification - La Vigne'>Viticulture et Vinification - La Vigne</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/women-of-domain.php' title='Women of the domain'>Women of the domain</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-14-bourgogne-1996.php' title='Bourgogne 1996'>Bourgogne 1996</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-13-bourgogne-1997.php' title='Bourgogne 1997'>Bourgogne 1997</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-12-bourgogne-1998.php' title='Bourgogne 1998'>Bourgogne 1998</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-11-bourgogne-1999.php' title='Bourgogne 1999'>Bourgogne 1999</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-10-bourgogne-2000.php' title='Bourgogne 2000'>Bourgogne 2000</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-9-bourgogne-2001.php' title='Bourgogne 2001'>Bourgogne 2001</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-8-bourgogne-2002.php' title='Bourgogne 2002'>Bourgogne 2002</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-7-bourgogne-2003.php' title='Bourgogne 2003'>Bourgogne 2003</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-6-bourgogne-2004.php' title='Bourgogne 2004'>Bourgogne 2004</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-5-bourgogne-2005.php' title='Bourgogne 2005'>Bourgogne 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-15-chambolle-musigny-1er-cru-les-feusselottes-2005.php' title='Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru Les Feusselottes 2005'>Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru 'Les Feusselottes' 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-16-clos-vougeot-2005.php' title='Clos Vougeot 2005'>Clos Vougeot 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/news-1016-direct-from-the-cellar-and-the-vineyards.php' title='Direct from the cellar and the vineyards'>Direct from the cellar and the vineyards</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-23-echezeaux-2003.php' title='Echezeaux 2003'>Echezeaux 2003</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-17-echezeaux-2005.php' title='Echezeaux 2005'>Echezeaux 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-22-echezeaux-2005.php' title='Echezeaux 2005'>Echezeaux 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-20-nuits-saint-georges-2005.php' title='Nuits-Saint-Georges 2005'>Nuits-Saint-Georges 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-18-nuits-saint-georges-1er-cru-les-chaignots-2005.php' title='Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots 2005'>Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 'Les Chaignots' 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-19-nuits-saint-georges-1er-cru-les-vignes-rondes-2005.php' title='Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Vignes rondes 2005'>Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 'Les Vignes rondes' 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/news-50002-reservations-for-the-2007-vintage.php' title='Reservations for the 2007 vintage'>Reservations for the 2007 vintage</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-21-ruchottes-chambertin-2005.php' title='Ruchottes-Chambertin 2005'>Ruchottes-Chambertin 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-1-vosne-romanee-2004.php' title='Vosne-Romanée 2004'>Vosne-Romanée 2004</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-25-vosne-romanee-2004.php' title='Vosne-Romanée 2004'>Vosne-Romanée 2004</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-2-vosne-romanee-2005.php' title='Vosne-Romanée 2005'>Vosne-Romanée 2005</a>
