Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Vielles Vignes Musigny Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2016

Bob McDonald

The 5th and final in the Chambolle Musigny, Vougeot and Flagey Echezeaux bracket. Tasted blind. My notes - Mid to deep Ruby. More constrained. Medium bodied - lacks fruit and mid palate stuffing. Would not buy”. My lowest pointed in this bracket. 2 years prior at this tasting James Halliday was in attendance. James is Australia’s best known and most published wine correspondent and long time Burgundy lover with a huge cellar of around 15,000 bottles. He made the comment that he had very little if any de Vogue in his cellar. I’ve always remembered this.
