| Community Tasting Notes (average 91.7 pts. and median of 92 pts. in 19 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by zorglub123 on 2/13/2024 & rated 92 points: Nez profond sur les fruits noirs, avec des nuances de fleurs (surtout des roses) qui viennent à l’agitation. Très belle attaque, le vin se montre dense et possède ce velouté étonnant et cette rondeur qui le rendent tellement aimable aujourd’hui alors qu’il recèle une énorme matière. Quel exploit d’avoir fait un vin aussi accessible et aussi plein. Très long final sur des notes de fruits très élégantes, et un raffinement incroyable ! (1599 views) | | | Tasted by Gian on 11/23/2023 & rated 91 points: Nose of cherry , red small fruits , elegant and not so easy to say NSG. need a couple of year or more to smooth more (1532 views) | | | Tasted by larsth on 6/27/2023 & rated 93 points: It is of course young but still drinking nicely at this point. Intoxicating nose. Brigth red fruits, some spices and earthy notes. Very elegant but also with some concentrated underlying power. Very nice. (3024 views) | | | Tasted by astroman on 6/2/2023 & rated 93 points: Sushi Dinner at Hatsu (Hatsu): Blind. Decant since 2pm, initially had touch of spritz on the nose which blew away. Red cherry, strawberry, lovely aroma of red fruits, Crunchy on the palate, good purity of fruits, revealing candies notes slowly. (3055 views) | | | Tasted by Rezy13 on 1/22/2023: Clos de la Marechale Vertical (Decatur, GA): Red fruit, riper, almost liqueured and confected fruit, sweet with juicy acids; good but does it have the extra gear to age well?, seemingly simple at this stage of its development. (2554 views) | | | Tasted by shifter on 11/19/2022: Quick decant. Some rustic NSG qualities. Good balance of fruit and acidity, if fairly forgettable as a whole. Should have the structure to develop some interest over time. (3915 views) | | | Tasted by Jonathanmustang on 11/10/2022 & rated 91 points: J’ai trouvé cette bouteille « d’extra » en succursale, probablement un retour… belle occasion de l’ouvrir et de découvrir en jeunesse ce mugnier 2019
Nez très primaire, ronce, cerise fraiche, gomme bazooka, poivre blanc, épices et quelques fines herbes
L’attaque est discrète, c’est plutôt en milieu de bouche qu’on découvre quelques discrets aromes de fruit, de poivre et une certaine amertume ‘’de jeunesse’’. L’acidité est bien présente et semble bien s’harmoniser avec l’ensemble, la matière me fait penser a des millésimes comme 2014
La finale est cependant jolie et expressive, evidament des arômes très jeunes de fruit, d’épices , de très leger tannins
Plus le temps avance, plus il s’ouvre et le fruit s’intensifie… c’est bon signe
Excellent! 91 pour le moment (3398 views) | | | Tasted by dcwino on 11/4/2022 & rated 92 points: 2022 Excellent Burgundy Adventure; 10/31/2022-11/6/2022 (Burgundy): Expressive nose displaying rich black fruit, blackberry pie, black cherry, licorice, dark flowers, roasted meat, animal and earth. Excellent concentration, layers upon layers of rich black fruit, dense and deeply toned, medium acidity, earthy mineral, and a long ripe black fruit driven finish. M. Mugnier’s Marechale clearly expressed the terroir of Nuits St. Georges versus all of his other reds. (4428 views) | | | Tasted by lovanc@outlook.com on 5/30/2022: Floral red fruit. Very easy drinking richer style burgundy (1161 views) | | | Tasted by cos65 on 5/4/2022 & rated 92 points: From 375
Incredibly young and fresh
But quite forward, fresh cherry
Quite rich. Hold (4063 views) | | | Tasted by Pinot_Geek on 4/18/2022: Just arrived, so I gave in to curiosity for an early preview. For me the 18’ was a hot mess of low acid 14% alcohol jam-I hope the 19s fare better.
Day 1: Dark, ripe blackberry fruit, low-medium tannin grip, low acid, label says 13.5% alcohol. Tastes like an easy-to-gulp new world Pinot right now-all about that ripe fruit. Without the balance of a stiffening spine of acid and tannin, I wonder how it will be able to integrate and deepen over time. As an early-drinker its fine, but I hope for more from my Burgs.
Day 2 (on Coravin/argon): Fresher tonight with balancing acid and tannins more evident. Bodes more positively for future development. I like this much more than yesterday. Will forget about these bottles for 3-4 years. (3523 views) | | | Tasted by jory on 4/14/2022 & rated 90 points: wanted to get a baseline for this one. perfectly enjoyable and much better than a recent sampling of the 2018 (which was, um, not great) but not particularly complex at this young age. hints of the future earthy mushroom depth are there but lurking in the background still. my first thought is to give this one another 5 years before resampling. (2562 views) | | | Tasted by JCMenendez on 3/24/2022 & rated 94 points: Yes it's a baby, but I had to try it. This is already a fabulous wine lots of bright red fruits, cherries, a touch of cranberries, a little orange peel, some earthy tones and beautifully balanced. Will be superb with time. (2594 views) | | | Tasted by ThomasV on 3/22/2022 & rated 87 points: Says 13,5% ABV but... This is dark fruited, plums, blackcurrant, blackberries, some bacon and hanged meat. Peppery, sweet, purple and dense. None of the usual elegance of Mugnier. He did say that he was struggling in these warm vintages, and will have to experiment with other ways of binding and trimming the vines, as they get too ripe and dense. This is clearly an example of this. Slightly better than the 2018 version, but I'm not a fan, and will sell my remaining bottle soon (2563 views) |

| Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier 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.Clos de la Maréchale On weinlagen-infoFrance Vins de France (Office National Interprofessionnel des Vins ) | Pages Vins, Directory of French Winegrowers | French Wine (Wikipedia)

2022 harvest: idealwine.info | wine-searcher.comBurgundy Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)
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
