A gorgeously complex if highly restrained nose displays a broad mix of dark berries, plum, earth, spice and Asian-style tea notes. The wonderfully rich, full-bodied and powerful flavors are shaped by fine-grained tannins that possess excellent phenolic ripeness before culminating in a spectacularly persistent and stony finish as this really fans out on the palate. Simply put, this is magnificent.
The 2014 Musigny Grand Cru has a pure, enticing, quite regal bouquet with red plum and blackberry scents, wild hedgerow and wilted rose petals -- all very nuanced, so much so that you almost miss its intrinsic intensity. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, very well judged acidity and tangible mineralité, especially on the precise finish that carries enormous persistence as it fans out.
