2008 Jacques-Frederic Mugnier Musigny

The year 2008 bestowed upon Burgundy's vineyards a season of rigorous challenges, resulting in a harvest that required the deftest of hands in both vineyard and winery management. It is this meticulous care that yielded a wine presenting an intricate labyrinth of flavours and textures. The 2008 Musigny Grand Cru from Domaine Jacques-Frederic Mugnier articulates the purity and precision that ensue when adversity is masterfully harnessed — a testament to the resilience and expertise embodied by its creators.

John Gilman - "All I can say is that if I made wine, this is the wine that I would dream of making! The 2008 Mugnier Musigny has also blossomed a bit over the last year and now is clearly another legend in the making, as it soars from the glass in a magnificent mélange of sappy cherries, blood orange, pomegranate, raw cocoa, profoundly complex soil tones, smoke and violets. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and very, very, very complex, with a sappy core of fruit, a very soil-driven personality, tangy acids, ripe and even tannins and a flawless, nearly endless finish. Brilliant wine." (Drink between 2020-2090)
