The 2022 Musigny Grand Cru (Domaine Louis Jadot) is brilliant, unwinding in the glass with notes of damask roses, ripe red cherries, blood orange and exotic spices. Full-bodied, deep and layered, it's seamless and multidimensional, with an effortless sense of completeness and a long, resonant finish.
The Musigny, like the Bonnes Mares, has been given 30% whole bunch vinification. Of the two, this has the more solid purple colour, and definitely a more backward nose. A wealth of fruit completely envelopes the palate but the detail is submerged in the flow. A trace of bitterness behind which is just part of its youth. All is there, will it hit the highest point of majesty? Not sure but I think it will get close as there is a lot here to work with, and more elevage to come. Drink from 2035-2045+. Tasted: October 2023.
