Musigny, Vieilles Vignes--Vintage 2006
6 bottles per lot
Musigny, Vieilles Vignes--Vintage 2006 Côte de Nuits. Domaine-bottled: Comtes Georges de Vogüé In original three bottle wooden cases Tasting note: Francois Millet thinks that there is considerable latent structure as well as aging potential in all of the De Vogüé 2006s, and with the 2006 Musigny Vieilles Vignes both are evident. Diverse jellied berries, citrus oils, and floral perfumes indeed seductively fill the nose, and then flood a seamlessly refined palate. At the same time, a sense of chalky and saline minerality as well as marrowy meatiness mount into the finish, taking on further prominence as the wine opens to the air. On the one hand you feel as though you are watching the wafting of clouds of fruit and perfume; on the other the motion of tectonic plates beneath your palate. This superb Musigny is going to be a great source of metaphors over the next 15 or more years, and one could do worse than start with the familiar iron fist wrapped in velvet, because it fits this wine like a glove. 96 points.
