Tasting notes
Full deep red. Terrific spicy lift to the tight aromas of raspberry, orange peel and minerals. Combines great sweetness and precision on the palate, showing a round, silky texture that's extraordinary for such a sappy wine. Most noteworthy today for its total mouth coverage and captivating combination of salty minerality and brilliantly fresh berry fruit, not to mention its noble tannins and captivating lingering perfume.

The 2013 Musigny Grand Cru has a glorious, complex bouquet with intense black cherries, wild strawberry, cold wet stone and orange blossom scents that really sprint out of the blocks. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannin and supremely well-judged acidity. This is knitted together beautifully, and there is clearly more substance than the Amoureuses. With immense persistence in the mouth, this is a really top-notch Musigny.
