Musigny, Domaine Georges & Christophe Roumier 2009

An intensely floral, wonderfully spicy and kaleidoscopically broad nose of pure, ripe and extremely fresh red pinot fruit and plum aromas. The powerful, complex and ultra-serious big-bodied and tautly muscular flavors possess seemingly endless reserves of underlying material and an intensity that builds from the mid-palate all the way to the explosive and palate staining finish. This is simply stunning and while it would be a stretch to claim that 2009 will be the best vintage ever for this storied wine, it will certainly be among them as this is indisputably brilliant.
