FINE BURGUNDY AND A SMATTERING OF BORDEAUX FROM A NEW YORK COLLECTOR
Musigny, Vieilles Vignes--Vintage 2003
Côte de Nuits, de Vogüé
"Very deep ruby but not black or opaque. An exceptionally ripe nose of plum jam, cassis and blackberry is complemented by a superb range of spices, including clove, anise and cinnamon plus attractive herbal undertones. The incredibly sappy and powerful medium full flavors are sappy, sweet and supple yet there is a very firm tannic spine buried beneath the mountain of dry extract. Despite the very high degree of ripeness, this is quite fresh for the vintage with a chewy but mouth coating and palate staining finish that goes on and on. In short, this is an opulent Musigny with superb underlying material and while it is hardly typical, it is a great wine all the same." BH, Jan 1, 2005
