2007 Mugnier, Nuits St.Georges 1er Clos de la Maréchale
The cork breaks in two, but the last part comes out easily enough with an ‘Ah-So.’
A round but attractive nose, more than subtly smoky. Wide over the palate with decently juicy, smoky (oaky) flavours too, and still a small line of finishing bitters that bookend the transparent red fruit. There’s fine depth of flavour here from a wine that’s showing rather young – it’s more of a very good wine than an outstanding one. I have a couple more and would think that 5 more years should be adequate.
Rebuy – Maybe
