This is fabulous from first sight and first sniff. An imperial purple robe, nothing black. The nose is sensual but controlled, majestic yet within a properly structured set of guidelines.
The 2015 Musigny Grand Cru offers compelling estuarine and oyster shell scents on a complex, extremely well-focused nose. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, supple tannin, pure blackberry, and raspberry fruit, and enthralling mineralité that seems to blossom toward the aristocratic finish. This is a fabulous wine, a Musigny flirting with perfection – and a serious contender for wine of the vintage.
