DOMAINE MUGNERET-GIBOURG
Since the death of Dr Georges Mugneret in 1988, the estate has been conscientiously directed by his widow and two daughters, one of whom, Marie-Andrée, is a qualified oenologist. Great care is taken to ensure that wine-making technology does not mask the clear distinctions in the wines from different vineyards, which are brilliantly expressed. The family is one of the few on the Côte de Nuits regularly to bottle into Jeroboams, of which we are fortunate to be able to offer examples here, for shipment in wooden cases. AH
To Be Lying in Gloucestershire at Christie's (Octavian) Approximately Three Weeks After The Sale
Offered duty-paid, but available in bond
Echézeaux Grand Cru--Vintage 1998
Côte de Nuits. Domaine-bottled: Mugneret-Gibourg
Tasting Note : One of the deepest purple-garnet colours in the cellar, this, tasted just before bottling, had intense, complex spiciness on the nose. The palate was full and rich, with chewy texture and tannins in fine balance, for drinking from 2005 and for a decade beyond. AH
