Opened one hour in advance. Perfumed aroma of red fruit. Delicate cherry flavor leads into a slightly sweet finish. Firm backbone, linear, subtle. Excellent basic Burgundy,.

Much better than expected. I decanted, probably mistakenly, but not in advance. Pure, pretty and nicely constructed. Length a bit short but this was very good.

(Mugnier J-F Nuits St.Georges Clos des Fourches) Bottled only 10 days earlier. The nose is wide and sweet, with violets and red fruits, time in the glass only adds to the penetrating weight of the aromatics - really lovely. The palate shows sweetness and freshness - super acidity - nicely intense in the mid-palate. It's long with just a hint of bitterness at the end. This bitterness and a slightly up-and-down presentation is most likely from the recent bottling. I'll keep an eye-out for this.

Liking this vintage chez Mugnier a lot than I did before, some light greeness to keep it fresh, stony, spicy, pretty with great linearity. 93

Last bottle - browny red - a bit closed on opening but blossomed in second day - lovely burgundy with forest floor notes
