1995 Jacques-Frederic Mugnier, Musigny Grand Cru, Bottle (750ml)

Frederic Mugnier had just recently bottled his 1995s when I visited him in June, and he was reluctant to allow me to taste them. Two of the wines were showing admirably well and deserve to be mentioned. The ruby-colored Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses exhibits delightful aromas of wild strawberries and touches of underbrush as well as an extremely elegant, silky-textured, medium-to-full bodied personality jam-packed with lively cherries, violets, minerals and spices. This superb wine possesses plenty of ripe, round tannins for structure in its beautifully long finish.
