Le Musigny shares certain characteristics with its neighbour Les Amoureuses; the elegance of richness without heaviness, and it has a similar palette of aromatic composition, although in the case of the Musigny, the underlying structure is less vibrant, steadier, with exceptional depth and intensity of flavour. The length of the finish on the palate is incomparable.

Mugnier's 2016 Musigny Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru is just being released, but readers should take its eight years of cellaring at the domaine as a statement of intent rather than a sign to start pulling corks on reception, as the wine is still very far from maturity. Unwinding in the glass with scents of dark berries, orange rind, exotic spices and a deft framing of new oak, it's full-bodied, deep and layered, with a hugely concentrated core of fruit that reflects the year's low yields, lively acids and supple but abundant structuring tannins, it concludes with a long, palate-staining finish.

Bright, dark red. Musky red berries, cherry, spices and earth on the nose. Savory on entry, then intense, rich and thick in the middle palate; the silkiest of these young 2016s if still showing a touch of reduction. Finishes with sweet soil tones and excellent subtle persistence. Still, I don't find the high notes of the 2015 version.
