Description
Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé, Musigny Grand Cru
Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé’s Musigny Grand Cru is incredibly distinctive—in some eyes the pinnacle of Pinot Noir. Burgundy authority Clive Coates describes it as both complete and profound but never heavy. The 2018 will go down as one of the greatest Vogüé Musigny bottlings in the modern era. It’s about power, precision and sheer complexity. Ethereal aromas of crushed black and blue fruit interlaced with minerals and asian spice seasoning. The palate brings on brambly of black plum, boysenberry, blueberry and black currants. Hints of black tea, orange blossom and sea spray add to the complexity. The bone-dry finish last for two to three minutes with depth, precision and tension all wrapped into one. This deserves 15-30 years of beauty rest in the cellar. This will bolster any serious Burgundy collection.
