The 2015 Musigny Grand Cru has a very detailed, complex bouquet with « cool » dark berry fruit intermingling with damp moss, iodine and crushed violet aromas. There is a purring engine underneath the bonnet of this Musigny. The palate is medium-bodied with endearing balance, a really stylish and assured Musigny with gratifying precision and complexity towards the finish that fans out gloriously. And yet there is much more hidden away here, to wit, a Musigny that deserves several years in bottle. This has huge potential.

?Here too the wood is so strong that it essentially crushes the underlying fruit. There is however superb density of material supporting the borderline huge yet almost inexplicably refined flavors that brim with dry extract while delivering incredible persistence on the mineral and palate drench finish that simply goes on and on. Like the Grands Ech this is a massively constituted Musigny that is going to need a very, very long time to reach its full majority but I hope that I’m around to see it when it does! In a word, brilliant.
