2011 Domaine de la Vougeraie Musigny Grand Cru

Dark cherry, plum, smoke and spices flesh out in the 2011 Musigny. This is one of the richer, more concentrated Musignys of the year. The 2011 was done with 100% whole clusters, but it is the 70% new oak barrels that mark the wine. The 2011 is going to need time in bottle, but I imagine it will always be more brooding than finessed. (AG)
