Chambolle Musigny Premier Cru, Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé 2019

**Note: from younger vines Musigny of less than 25 years of age, the youngest of which were planted in 2007**
This is aromatically restrained while similar to the Chambolle villages in terms of the fruit but with more apparent spice and floral influences. The sleek, intense and big-bodied weight flavors exhibit evident minerality on the focused and gorgeously textured finish where a touch of bitter cherry pit character slowly emerges. This markedly firmer effort and beautifully balanced wine is a really lovely wine that possesses a similar degree of finesse but with plenty of punch to go with it. In a word, terrific.

Made from the young vines of Musigny, of which the most recent date back to 2007, the oldest from the 1990s. Classic intense purple. The nose is really stylish, bearing the majesty of Musigny. There is a considerable weight of fruit here, though obviously not equal to the grand vin and not so nuanced. Grenadine and deep raspberry, before going to the black side. Very fine, and persistent.
