2011 Musigny, Grand Cru, Domaine de la Vougeraie, Burgundy

Description

Two thirds new wood is used to produce this wine and it is terrifically rich and sumptuous, yet completely noble on the nose. It is one of those wines that needs constant re-sniffing and it tastes like an absolutely complete wine that reflects the majesty of Musigny.

Pierre Vincent’s reputation has been blossoming over the last few vintages, as critic’s rate his wines increasingly highly and repeated success at the International Wine Challenge has been rewarded with the Len Evans Trophy for consistency over 5 years. Pierre is looking to major on delicacy while building persistence, to which end the new oak component is being reduced and the whole bunch fermentation percentage increased. The Vougeraie 2011s were picked over 12 days, beginning on the 31st August.

Critics reviews

Allen Meadows 93-95/100
“Don’t Miss” Wines from the 2011 Vintage This is restrained to the point of being borderline inexpressive though aggressive swirling coaxes notes of highly spiced floral, red currant, black cherry and kirsch to reveal themselves. The mouth feel of the strikingly seductive medium weight plus sized flavors is pure silk and satin as the grain of the tannins is ultra-fine. There is also excellent underlying tension and delineation to the understated and harmonious finish that really fans out on the beautifully well-balanced finish. This is a stunner of a wine that should thoroughly reward long-term cellaring. allen_meadows - burghound_com.com - issue 49 - Jan 2013

Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The Musigny 2011 from Domaine de la Vougeraie has a more extravagant bouquet compared to Prieurs: ravishing blueberry and boysenberry jam on the nose, merging with crme de cassis and crushed violets, gaining more and more momentum with each swirl of the glass. The palate is very seductive with very supple tannins, wonderful acidity and huge weight on the finish without dispensing with one morsel of finesse. Outstanding.Neil Martin - 30/11/2014
