2007 Nuits-St Georges, Clos de la Maréchale, 1er Cru, J.F Mugnier

From the classy, harmonious bouquet to the elegant style in which this magical wine suffuses the palate, it is clear to see that this is another brilliant Mugnier wine, and will be much desired.

The familiar & expressive bouquet of red raspberry fruit and that spice note so typical of a great Burgundy is here. Full, round and generous swathes of flavour fill the palate and crescendo into a point of spice, crunchy acidity and a great length. Hard to resist now but will continue to develop until 2016 it won’t disappoint.
(Stuart Rae, BBR Fine Wine)

A ripe, fresh and slightly herbal nose combines notes of red and blue pinot fruit, soil tones and a touch of underbrush that can also be found on the fresh, pure and racy silky textured flavors that possess real verve on the dusty, linear and palate staining finish. Lovely if lighter than either the 2005 or 2006 versions.
