Musigny, Vieilles Vignes--Vintage 1997
Côte de Nuits. Domaine-bottled: Comtes Georges de Vogüé
Integrated Austrian import labels
Tasting note: Vogue's 1997 Musigny is medium to dark ruby-colored, and exhibits a breathtaking nose of blueberries, licorice, jammy blackberries, violets, Asian spices, and stones. This magnificent wine is medium to full-bodied, sublimely refined, and detailed. It is a great Musigny in a light and lace-like style. Red currants and cherries vie for the taster's attention with spices and fresh clay in its luxurious, yet well-defined, personality. To top things off, this awesome wine's immensely long finish reveals loads of supple tannins, which will ensure the necessary backbone for cellaring. Projected maturity: 2002-2012+. (93-95 points). Pierre Rovani, Wine Advocate #125, October 1999
