Jacques Frederic Mugnier Musigny 2005 (OWC/6)
Tasting Note
'Tasting the magical 2005 Burgundies for the first time out of barrel in November of 2006, the two wines that stood at my own personal hierarchy at that time were Romanée-Conti and the Mugnier Musigny. I was fully prepared for this wine to be hermetically sealed at this point in time, but it was not the case and this great young wine showed beautifully. The bouquet soars from the glass in a brilliant mélange of red and black cherries, blood orange, mustard seed, a great base of iron soil tones, woodsmoke, violets and raw cocoa. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very, very pure, with a rock solid core of fruit, brilliant soil inflection, ripe tannins, tangy acids and remarkable grip and purity on the endless finish. This is very, very young, and very, very good.'
