I’ve been fortunate to drink many vintages of this bottling and I think it’s one of the best Bourgogne’s out there. The vintage is not working in this bottle’s favor. It good, true and pure but seems a bit hollow and has outsized acidity. Time open helps bring things together but it never really integrates. While the best vintages are pure, plush, juicy and fun, this bottle is just a bit too rough. Good but no more. (86)

One of the better Bourgogne’s I have ever tasted. Is it worth $50? Pure, Pinot fruit is front and center, with a voluptuous mouthfeel. Delicious. This easy drinking real burgundy. Now, if it only went for $25 in significant quantities. One can dream, no? (88)

My first taste from Georges Mugneret-Gibourg, and this Bourgogne rouge is really well-made, decent amount of complexity and concentration. 93pts
