Critics reviews

Allen Meadows 94-96/100

A top note of exotic herbal tea combines with an exuberantly floral nose where the whole cluster vinification is a bit more obvious for the moment compared to the prior wines. The incredibly rich, velvety and palate soaking big-bodied flavors are notably more mineral-driven while retaining excellent power and delineation on the incredibly long finish. This is very classy with a superb underlying reserve of material that should allow this stunner of a Musigny to age for the better part of two decades. With that said, it could actually be enjoyed young so good is the density of material.

Drink from 2032 onward

The 2020 Musigny Grand Cru is intense and focused on the nose with red berry fruit, undergrowth, plenty of wilted violets coming through with time. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins that frame very pure, red berry fruit, a touch of sappiness as it fans out and deepens on the finish. There is something majestic about this Musigny, and the finish is extraordinarily long.

Drink 2030 - 2065

About this wine

Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir is probably the most frustrating, and at times infuriating, wine grape in the world. However when it is successful, it can produce some of the most sublime wines known to man. This thin-skinned grape which grows in small, tight bunches performs well on well-drained, deepish limestone based subsoils as are found on Burgundy's Côte d'Or. Pinot Noir is more susceptible than other varieties to over cropping - concentration and varietal character disappear rapidly if yields are excessive and yields as little as 25hl/ha are the norm for some climats of the Côte d`Or.
