Tasting notes
The 2020 Musigny Grand Cru includes 40% whole bunch and was matured entirely in new oak. With intensity on the nose, this is more floral than the Clos-de-Bèze, touches of violet infusing the red fruit alongside light aniseed aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, very harmonious with impressive weight and an irresistible silky texture on the persistent finish. Beautiful. Just one barrel was produced this year due to millerandage and then stress.

30% whole bunch vinification, and aged in 100% new wood. Very intense fresh purple. Very rich and ripe, confit of sundried cherries with a light peach sauce. Very succulent with considerable length, not heady even if a little jammy, but the persistence pulls out very well. It may well be that the Musigny will refine and reinforce its structure during the rest of the elevage, but for the moment it is a little too much on the lush side to show its true grandeur.
