2001 Vougeraie Musigny

By on February 28, 2003 #asides

Believe it or not, the entire harvest from this vineyard was de-stemmed grape by grape, entirely by hand. This process took 10 people 12 hours to complete resulting in 2 and a quarter barrels. Medium-plus cherry in colour. The nose is deep with an aroma that’s quite persistent. Very silky almost soft palate, despite the evident concentration. Very smooth, well covered acidity. The finish is exceptionally long – as you would expect with an exceptional wine!

This shows exceptional density for the appellation. Medium-plus cherry. Nice nose with lovely concentration. Good tannins and acidity coupled with very nice fruit. Only the length of finish gives a hint to the appellation. Exceptional Bourgogne.

Pale colour. White flowers and melon on the nose. Again a very concentrated palate, with nice acidity pushing the finish long. Very good wine.

Quite deeply coloured. Some oak on the nose with darker, sweeter fruits than the ‘Clos Prieur’. Good strong tannins with the acidity pushing the fruit longer on the finish. Also good wine.

All the vines here on gravelly soil. Medium-plus colour. Lovely nose of soil together with red and black fruits. Soft entry with slightly drying tannins. Super fruit here and the finish comes with a bit of a bang. Very pure expression of fruit here.

By on February 28, 2003 #asides

A blend of four vineyards, including one 1er cru (Baudes). Bright, medium cherry colour. The nose has hints of earth and smooth red fruits. On the palate, gorgeous red fruits, medium soft tannins which coat your teeth. Medium length. Very interesting.
