2010 Clos Vougeot Musigni

The 2010 Clos de Vougeot-Musigni emerges from the glass with freshly cut flowers, red berries and mint. Bright aromas and flavors meld into precise, mineral notes as the wine shows off its energetic, focused personality. Layers of sweet perfumed red fruit blossom beautifully on the deep, textured finish. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2030. I tasted all of Bernard Gros’s 2010s from tank, where the wines were settling for the winter. As is his usual custom, Gros concentrated the wines 10-15%, and therefore did not feel the need to chaptalize any of his 2010s. He calls 2010 a good vintage for quality but not the wallet, as yields are down 30-40%. Importer: Atherton Imports, Menlo Park, CA; tel. (650) 328-6639
