| Community Tasting Notes (average 90.3 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 54 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by BenBlu on 10/29/2020 & rated 91 points: Starts off a little tart. Then comes around quite quickly with a bit of air. Earth, high pitched cranberry, very good mouthfeel and very elegant. Could do with a tiny bit more stuffing, it's a tad lean but so nice in an autumnal way. Lovely village for sure. If it had some more core sweetness it could be exceptional but it is just shy of that. So while great MG Vosne village isn't quite up there with the Champions league (think Comte Liger Belair) but it's one of the best of the rest. But feels like it's time to drink up over the next 3-5 years as my fear is that the tartness is just going to get more pronounced and the fruit will fade which could render it too "sour" soon. (1825 views) | | | Tasted by spacewrangler on 10/2/2020 & rated 90 points: More buttoned up than the last time I tried it. I'd drink these up, there's plenty of fruit but no real structure left. Enjoy them while the fruit is fresh and kicking. (1549 views) | | | Tasted by NickA on 8/20/2020 & rated 91 points: 2007 Burgs, round 1 (Noize): Hard to assess this one. At first there's plenty of gamey aroma to enjoy, whilst the palate is a little clipped, but with air and food things broaden and the reserved acidity becomes an asset rather than a hindrance. Not a sin to open this tonight, and enjoyable, but it's a bit rigid and there's probably more to come. (1682 views) | | | Tasted by spacewrangler on 3/24/2020 & rated 92 points: Lovely wine in a perfect spot, pop n pour. (1770 views) | | | Tasted by DaleW on 5/28/2019: I was frankly disappointed when opened- tart cranberry and raspberry, all acid, seemingly short finish. But revisited later that night better, and much better on day 2. Still red fruit and acid, but more balanced, with sandalwood and spice and longer minerally finish. On day 2 B+. 2007 is supposed to be the drink now vintage but I think I'll hold remainder a bit (or open earlier in day). (1970 views) | | | Tasted by galewskj on 5/9/2019 & rated 90 points: Moslty Oregon and Burgundy (Kevin and Vicki's house): Iron and rocky minerality dominates, with enough elegant fruit to make it work. (1510 views) | | | Tasted by 3daywinereview.com on 5/4/2019 & rated 88 points: Salmon and Pinot Noir at Rocknrollers (Minneapolis, MN): Earth, minerals, cherry and wood. Medium finish. Solid wine overall but hard to get past the price point when you can go to Oregon and get so much more for half the price. (1479 views) | | | Tasted by rocknroller on 5/4/2019 & rated 89 points: Pinots and Salmon (Rocknroller's (Kevin & Vicki's Place)): Medium red color. Splash decanted, drank a glass over an hour. This sreally took its time to evolve. Cherry, red fruits, mineral, spice, white pepper on the nose. The palate is cherry, wood spices, mineral, white pepper, still firm tannins. Over time we get more earth, darker red fruits and some charcoal. 89+ to 90pts. (1680 views) | | | Tasted by Paul D on 2/27/2019 & rated 88 points: 5/6, excellent cork. Medium garnet core, pale garnet rim. Nose is dark fruited, some liquorice and smoke, florals. A touch subdued. Medium bodied, dark-fruited, touch of soil and liquorice, vibrant acidity, slightly firm tannins showing on the finish. A touch leaner, bonier, less glossy and exuberant than previously, perhaps this was better 5 years ago. (1391 views) | | | Tasted by Capt Cutlass on 12/22/2018 & rated 86 points: Blind tasted and glad I hadn't paid for it! Discrete nose with hints of root beer and alcohol. Overiding taste of orange peel. Tight on the palate, acidic and astringent and short to boot. I can't get no satisfaction! Other tasters preferred this style to the richer Arnoux 2005 Chaumes. Beats me... (1047 views) | | | Tasted by brooklynguy on 11/18/2018: Seriously lovely bottle, and fully ready to go, drinking beautifully now. There is structure but it is gentle, the aromatics are classic Vosne, with cumin seed and bright red fruit, and a leafy/earthy secondary tone. This is a soft-spoken wine, but has a lot to say, very classy and elegant. Delicious and expressive on the palate, which shows a great balance of fruit and spice. The wine began to lose potency after two hours open and I think, if this is a representative bottle, should be drunk in the near-term, as it is delicious and expressive and it's hard to imagine it improving from here. (2042 views) | | | Tasted by western on 11/18/2018 & rated 91 points: Gob smackingly good for an 07 Village. Great vigneron's. (1092 views) | | | Tasted by Kemo Sabe on 5/28/2018 & rated 90 points: Rich and full bodied VR. Good spices and well integrated tannins. Feel this is at peak given the vintage. Plenty of red fruits and some black cherries. Drink now but should last easily another 5 years as well. (1517 views) | | | Tasted by Kemo Sabe on 8/3/2017 & rated 89 points: So this needed a good hour plus of air. When first opened this wasnt good. Almost rancid. After 30 minutes with some swirling it started to get better. The last glass the best. Some Vosne spices, cherries, charcoal and ash. Medium complexity and length. A decent villages wine. (1905 views) | | | Tasted by collin on 2/23/2017: This was quite delicious. Maybe a bit muddled due to the vintage, but everything was there- some Vosne-ness, complexity on the back end, good weight / texture. This is a compelling drink now and may ease into a better place if the texture turns more velvety or the Vosne-ness comes out more prominently. But if you got it- a bird in the hand, and all that. (2052 views) | | | Tasted by ajbergren on 5/28/2016 & rated 92 points: Rich ruby with a hint of brown at the rim and medium optical density. Wonderful intensity nose, with bright cherry, earth, and lifted florals, along with some savory smoked bacon notes woven in. Refreshing acidity, medium body, very dry, and with well integrated tannins, it shows an elegant, but rich mouthfeel that is smooth, yet clean. Flavours on the attack are bright red fruits (cherry, raspberry) and earthy mushroom, with a firm midpalate that adds clean pipe tobacco and florals to the still vivid fruit. The finish is long, with savory, smoky character above baking spices and earth-laden fruit peels. Very well balanced, with vivid fruit, refreshing acid, just enough tannin to clean up the finish, and a variety of interesting earth, smoke, florals, and spice to provide a ton of interest. Really nice bottle, and is drinking really well! (2927 views) | | | Tasted by Sycamore on 2/4/2016: A little bit on the current downswing, if based on TNs written a few years ago (and memory :-)). This is closer to being a fairly pedestrian mid-80s-to-slightly-higher wine right now. Oak made it better earlier? Hard to guess (though hope not..), but don't open again till Fall 2017 in the name of 'science'... (3201 views) | | | Tasted by Charlie Carnes on 6/28/2015: The first good red wine Ive had in weeks!. This is easygoing, and delicious. The fine red and dark fruit is enveloped in baking spices and pretty soil perceptions. A serious wine! 2007s have been rewarding lately. (3674 views) | | | Tasted by galenico on 5/22/2015 & rated 87 points: Profilo maturo e bocca al contrario non perfettamente matura. Ha tutte le caratteristiche del 2007, la bocca flebile e diluita, morbida e scorrevole; il registro vegetale e peggiora con la sosta nel bicchiere.
Nulla di indimenticabile (3308 views) | | | Tasted by Paul D on 4/12/2015 & rated 91 points: Pale/medium ruby/garnet core, wide pale garnet rim. Aromatic, potpourri of red and purple fruits, very floral, haunting. Medium bodied, very fine tannins, finely boned, lovely pure bilberry fruit, some sweet strawberry, fresh acids, very good length slightly savoury finish with a touch of dusty tannin. Beautiful village Vosne. (3078 views) | | | Tasted by Spencer on 12/8/2013: Typical beautiful Mugneret. Elegant, poised, mineral, transparent. Continued to improve in the glass. Can't ask for any more from a village wine. Drinking well now, but there's no rush. (3605 views) | | | Tasted by Paul D on 11/1/2013 & rated 92 points: Attractive medium/deep cherry/garnet core with a medium pale rim. On the nose this shows perfumed, polished dark cherry fruit, notes of plum and earth, vanilla. Medium bodied on the palate, seamless very fine tannins, dark fruit, now deliciously spicy as well as sensuous and glossy, lovely vibrant acidity carrying a good length finish. Classy and excellent without having to try too hard. (3357 views) | | | Tasted by western on 9/16/2013 & rated 91 points: Improved greatly since previous bottle in 2010. More integrated lovely balance of fruit, acid and tannin. Re-visit in 3 yrs to asses development. (3021 views) | | | Tasted by swade on 5/29/2013 & rated 90 points: The best of four bottles. Smooth and spherical in the mouth. It didn't have that mosquito repellant tincture that was worrisome in my first bottle and many other non-Volnay 2007s. Cranberry juice, earth and spice. It had the M-G polish, but preserved it's sense of place. Outstanding. (3246 views) | | | Tasted by -E- on 6/6/2012 & rated 89 points: Søtlig, rød/blå-fruktdrevet, litt dropsaktig parfyme. Slank og fint strukturert frukt med flott syre. Følger nesen. Fin lengde. 89/90 P (4151 views) | | | Only displaying the 25 most recent notes - click to see all notes for this wine... |

Burgundy-Report (4/1/2009)
(Mugneret-Gibourg Georges Vosne-Romanée) In bottle for a month from a mix of 70 and 25 year-old vines. Lovely, pure, fruit-driven aromas that seem almost silky. In the mouth there's super taxture and is one of those rare villages wines that show gras (or fat). Lovely balance and concentration that follows beautifully into the finish. Excellent villages. |

| Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg Producer websitePinot Noir Varietal character (Appellation America) | Varietal article (Wikipedia)
Pinot Noir is the Noble red grape of Burgundy, capable of ripening in a cooler climate, which Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot will not reliably do. It is unpredictable and difficult both to grow and to vinify, but results in some of the finest reds in the world. It is believed to have been selected from wild vines two thousand years ago. It is also used in the production of champagne. In fact, more Pinot Noir goes into Champagne than is used in all of the Cote d'Or! It is also grown in Alsace, Jura, Germany, the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Romania, Switzerland, Austria, Croatia, Serbia, Italy, and so forth, with varying degrees of success.
Pinot Noir is one of the world's most prestigious grapes. It is very difficult to grow and thrives well in France, especially in Champagne and Burgundy. Pinot Noir thrives less in hot areas, is picky on soil, and deserves some oak storage.
Pinot Noir, or Blauburgunder / Spätburgunder in German, is a blue grapevine - and, as the German name suggests, the grape comes originally from Burgundy in France.
The grape, which thrives in calcareous soils, is used primarily for the production of red wine, and it is widely regarded as producing some of the best wines in the world. The wine style is often medium-bodied with high fruit acidity and soft tannins. It can be quite peculiar in fragrance and taste, and not least in structure - which may be why it is referred to as "The Grapes Ballerina".
Pinot Noir is also an important ingredient in sparkling wines, not least in champagne since it is fruity, has good acidity and contains relatively little tannins.
The grape is considered quite demanding to grow. The class itself consists of tightly packed grapes, which makes it more sensitive to rot and other diseases.
Pinot Noir changes quite easily and is genetically unstable. It buds and matures early which results in it often being well ripened. Climate is important for this type of grape. It likes best in cool climates - in warm climates the wines can be relaxed and slightly pickled.
In cooler climates, the wine can get a hint of cabbage and wet leaves, while in slightly warmer regions we often find notes of red berries (cherries, strawberries, raspberries, currants), roses and slightly green notes when the wine is young. With age, more complex aromas of forest floor, fungi and meat emerge.
In Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Hungary, it often produces light wines with less character. However, it has produced very good results in California, Oregon and New Zealand.
With its soft tannins and delicate aroma, it is excellent for white fish, chicken and light meat. For the stored wines you can serve small game. Classic duck breast is a matter of course, a Boeuf Burgundy and Pinot Noir are pure happiness.
Pinot Noir loses quality by over-harvesting.
Pinot Noir is prone to diseases, especially rot and mildew. Viruses cause major problems especially in Burgundy.
Pinot Noir are large round grapes with thin skins. Relatively high in alcohol content. Medium rich tannins and good with acid.
As a young person, Pinot Noir has a distinctly fruity character such as raspberries, cherries and strawberries.
A mature Pinot Noir, the taste is different. Cherry goes into plum and prune flavors. It smells of rotten leaves, coffee, moist forest floor and animal wine. This must be experienced.
In warm climates you find boiled plum, some rustic, little acid.
If the grapes are over-grown, the wine will be thin, with little color and flavor.France Vins de France (Office National Interprofessionnel des Vins ) | Pages Vins, Directory of French Winegrowers | French Wine (Wikipedia)

Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
Côte de Nuits on weinlagen.infoVosne-RomanéeVosne Romanée is one of the smallest wine villages in Burgundy. The wines possess diverse characteristics, but they can generally be considered to have complexity and longevity beyond nearly all other wines in the world. The village has six grand crus: Romanée-Conti, La Romanée, La Tâche, Richebourg, Romanée-Saint-Vivant, and La Grande Rue. While there is monopoly control of four of the six grand crus, the village has at least forty growers sharing its vineyards. The top premier cru includes Les Malconsorts, Cros Parantoux, Les Chaumes, and Clos des Réas.
