May 10, 2020 - Medium ruby red in color with some clearing at the edges. Full, forward, & fragrant nose of ripe red fruits of cherries, raspberries & strawberries with overtones of dusty/earthy & floral notes, loam & forest floor, tea, exotic spices, minerals, some sous bois & a slight hint of cedar in the background. Medium bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe red fruit flavors of cherries, strawberries & cranberries with spices, minerals & a touch of vanilla/oak. Long lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present but at 24 years of age, it at its peak of development, so drink up.

August 12, 2017 - I may have given up on this too soon. Secondary notes really beginning to pop out .. aromatic, lovely mouthfeel with enough '96 freshness to be lively with the acidity enveloped in a pillow of soft Pinot fruit. If there is a complaint, it is that the inner energy of this wine remains low. But the move towards secondary is increasing the interest and I'd guess this will positively evolve for another five years or so.

March 19, 2017 - The 96 Mugnier is a classic chambolle. It is very pure, elegant and transperent with wild berries, citrus, spice and flowers. Drinking very well now with high acidity to age longer
