Overvældende Grand Cru fra den legendariske Le Musigny-mark.
Le Musigny betragtes af flere, som én af Bourgognes mest udsøgte marker. Drouhin-Laroze ejer blot 0.18 hektar, og deres beholdning er derfor ekstremt begrænset. Det bliver kun værre af flaskernes udsøgte kvalitet. De arbejder med fadlagring, som giver den ellers slanke Pinot Noir-drue mere tekstur, og giver en snært mere fylde til vinen. Men med så ekstravagant frugt, som man får fra Le Musigny, fremstår druestorten fortsat majestætisk og aristokratisk i glasset.
Vinene fra netop Le Musigny er blevet voldsomt efterspurgt de seneste år, og netop Grand Cru-vinene herfra har formået at opnå en popularitet og efterspørgsel på niveau med de allerstørste vine fra Vosne-Romanee.

The 2016 Musigny Grand Cru was reduced to a single barrel because of the frost, instead of the usual two or three. It has a deep and penetrating bouquet with black fruit, blueberry, minerals, crushed rose petals and vanilla absorbed from the new barrel. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannin, great tension here, with a sorbet-fresh finish laced with orange zest and Japanese yuzu. It feels linear at the moment but very focused and with palpable energy that leaves the mouth tingling with glee after the wine has departed. Superb. This is another classy offering from Drouhin-Laroze.

There’s only one (new) barrel of this wine, so it’s not surprising that it’s a little oaky right now. It’s arguably not the most typical of Musigny releases, showing a quite a bit of tannins and grip, but give it some time to settle. Spicy, rich and intense with a firm finish. 2026-38. (01/2018)
Burghound - 92-95
Here the wood isn't subtle and while it doesn't completely dominate the spicy red and dark berry fruit aromas, it comes close to it. Like the Clos de Bèze, this is notably full-bodied and concentrated with a seductive and sappy texture adding to the overall appeal of the classy and lingering finish where the wood shows up again. This appears to have the stuffing to ultimately integrate the oak and my predicted range offers the benefit of the doubt in this regard.
