  • 2008 Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier Chambolle-Musigny

    France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny

    From bottle at the Domaine. Dark, earthy red berries with nice spice. Hints of sweet herb as well. Mineral backbone. Expansive on the palate with a wonderful balance of acidity and minerality. Lengthy finish for a Villages. Great Village level wine and I can't wait to see where this goes in the future.

  • 2008 Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Clos de la Maréchale

    France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru

    From bottle at the Domaine. Bright red and blue fruits with bits of earth and crushed rocks. Seductive. Same berry fruit and earth on the medium bodied palate. Beautiful texture and refreshing acidity on the moderate finish. Really nice wine and I look forward to following it.

  • 2008 Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier Bonnes Mares

    France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Bonnes Mares Grand Cru

    From bottle at the Domaine. An airy nose of cool red and blue berry fruits with damp earth and some savory herb qualities. Completely coats the palate. Well textured. Very long finish with a perfect balance of acidity and minerality. Long finish. Very elegant wine. Wow!
