Product Description
AG98 "The 2012 Musigny opens with the most exquisite, captivating aromatics imaginable. A seemingly eternal wine with no beginning and no end, the Musigny is a wine that calls for serious introspection as it constantly changes in the glass. Wild flowers of all sorts meld into exquisite, finely-sculpted fruit all with the support of silky tannins that only add to the wine's total sense of refinement. The finish is long, seamless and haunting. There isn't too much more to say, except that the Mugnier's 2012 Musigny is one of the wines of the year." AG Apr 2015
BH97 "A gorgeously spicy nose combines dark pinot fruit liqueur scents, various floral elements and exotic tea notes. There is an ultra-refined mouth feel to the imposingly scaled, concentrated and intensely mineral-driven flavors that brim with dry extract that both imparts a velvety texture and buffers the very firm tannic spine on the explosively long and astonishingly complex finish. Among the hundreds of 2012s that I revisited in bottle on this trip, there were exactly three that I swallowed rather than spit out and this was one of them. A 'wow' wine if there ever was one."
