  Musigny (Marea): Loaded with personality, starting with a deep aroma that keeps drawing your nose back to the glass. One of the more annoying tasting-note clichés is "explosive in the mouth" but it still seems apropos here: the wine comes across sharp and piercing on the entry and then BOOM, it bursts with all kinds of flavors ranging from roasted coffee grounds to something vaguely reminiscent of freshly turned soil, if you could imagine that tasting as attractive as it smells, which it probably doesn't, and of course the rich, golden fruit. The effervescence is still vigorous here which contributes to its sense of precision.
