  • Bu lors d’une série avec Un Echezeaux et Grand Echezeaux de la Romanée Conti. Quelle chance de pouvoir boire un si grand vin. Millésime peu reconnu pourtant aucune trace ici de ce côté végétal de plusieurs 2004. Des épices douces à profusion sur ce nez sublime et complexe. Bouche d’une telle classe et élégance tout en ayant encore une belle colonne et structure affinée, quelle finale délicieuse et longueur impressionnante. 96-97

    Drank with Echezeaux 2013 and Grands Echezeaux 2010 of the DRC. Great complexity and finesse on that nose, lots of layers of spices and the palate is also gorgeous, such finesse, yet intense and classy, impressive length. Despite the poor reputation of the 2004 vintage, such an amazing chance to drink such a rare wine.

  • This wine had a very deep red center with light red rims. The medium intensity took quite a while to develop. After a few hours it developed plums, violets, minerals, and some rhubarb.

    In the mouth, this had a nice silky texture, light rounded tannin, and very good length.

    This wine still seemed young and likely to improve with time. However, the QPR seems debatable.

  • Touch of creaminess aromatically that signaled Mugnier, but smells and tastes like 2004. Strong greenness on nose and palate. Polished and refined tannins.

  • During a La Paulee dinner, so no detailed tasting notes. Great, spicy wine, red fruit with clay, cloves, wonderful, no 2004 greenness whatsoever.

  • Montrachet and Musigny: Blind. Dark violet florals, chocolate, blood, black cherry and some redcurrant. Really composed on the palate, medium bodied fruit and excellent length that is stretched out by bright acidity. Doesn't show any of the 2004 green streak at the moment, a really successful showing for this wine.

    (Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier Musigny) Redolent incense, sandalwood and roses nose; focused, tight, smoky, tart red fruit palate with oak; medium-plus finish

    (Mugnier J-F Musigny) The colour is medium-plus red, but halfway between ruby and cherry - already starting to lose some that youthfull robe. The nose starts deep and complex with a strong cedar note at the top, and all-spice below. It takes quite some time to open out into a more fruit dimension - mainly a redcurrant note that develops a baked tart effect. The palate has perfect texture - ultra-smooth - and excellent acidity. Really exceptional length, though currently edged with some faintly bitter oak tannin. Interestingly the cedar of the nose is mirrored on the palate. Just a little more intense than the Echezeaux, but I find that cedar note intrusive. Lots of positive aspects, but a wine that is less 'together' than the Mugneret-Gibourg today. Take an overnight rest in the refridgerator and the last glass has a more floral nose and the palate is more 'together' - still a little cedar though. 5 more lay in the cellar for the long-term.
