Domaine Jacques-Frederic Mugnier 2014 Chambolle Musigny 750ml

Bright medium red. Compelling perfume of raspberry, flowers, game and leather, still with a touch of reduction. Tactile and vibrant in the mouth, with complex flavors of red berries, flowers and flint accented by soil and light veggie nuances. Not as thick as the young 2015 but a wonderfully expressive and complete village wine. Finishes saline and sweet, with fine-grained tannins and superb length and soil character. Frederic Mugnier noted that this wine can be kept for a long time but emphasized that it "doesn't benefit as much from aging as the crus do."

Score: 91 points -- Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Nov 2016
