Musigny is remarkable for its great purity of colour. The aromas are reminiscent of violet and fruit stone when the wine is young. After eight to ten years, these aromas become very refined and complex: fallen leaves, damp earth, moss and hints of fur or leather. The tasting sensations are incomparable in terms of finesse and harmony. The tannins are elegant, although very much alive. Silk and velvet match the liveliness of the acidity. The lingering aftertaste is dominated by hints of rare, exotic woods as well as candied cherry.

What s a nose. Intense roses, dark cherry, spice, black pepper. On the palate just delicious with a glossy, transparent mouthfeel. Intense but beautifully light and then really long. The nose on this is just beautiful and the wine is delicious. Wow.

2004 vintage. Fairly aggro/in your face upon opening with tons of front-loaded palate fruit. Woulda guessed Carneros initially. Eventually softened on the initial impression and added a bit o’ tannins on the finish. Medium/medium-heavy body. Far from impressing with a subtle style; plenty of thrust from the get go. No rush to crush.

With 5 hours of air. In good shape. A touch green. Will be prettier with age. Good potential
