Musigny 2013 Georges Roumier

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (97)

There is 1¼ barrels of the 2013 Musigny this year and Christophe mentioned that he would be transferring it into a used barrel the following week after my early November visit. It has a beguiling bouquet, like a more serious cousin of the Bonnes-Mares. There is very tangible sea foam/oyster shell tincturing the pure dark cherry and bilberry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, supple tannins, perfect acidity and a silky texture. This Musigny is very harmonious and even though this was taken from the new barrels, it just oozes class.
