Domaine de la Vougeraie, Musigny Grand Cru, Burgundy, France 2011

Rose petals, jasmine and violets on the nose. Palate is silky exuding a perfume of a bouquet of spring flowers, sweet spices, earth and cedar notes. Very long finish. Amazing finesse and grace in this wine – delicate, gentle yet powerful.

An impressive Musigny that combines polish, succulence and density. Its core is fleshed out with an appealing fruit lushness buttressed by refined tannins and fine-tuned acidity. Its seductive curves add real appeal, though the attractive savoury tones of forest floor and celery seed contribute to its depth and complexity. A lovely and serious wine. Vinified by the talented Pierre Vincent before he moved to Domaine Leflaive in 2017.
