Musigny 2013 Jadot

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (97)

The 2013 Musigny Grand Cru has a glorious, complex bouquet with intense black cherries, wild strawberry, cold wet stone and orange blossom scents that really sprint out of the blocks. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannin and supremely well-judged acidity. This is knitted together beautifully, and there is clearly more substance than the Amoureuses. With immense persistence in the mouth, this is a really top-notch Musigny.

Here the nose is even more complex if not necessarily any more elegant than that of the Amoureuses with its cool menthol, spice, plum, exotic tea, violet and once again sandalwood scents. As is virtually always the case this is bigger, richer and more powerful with outstanding intensity and muscle to the very firmly structured flavors that exude a subtle minerality onto the explosive and hugely long finale. This is very backward and primary at present and I wouldn't even think of opening one of these beauties before at least 10 years of age and 17 to 20 will probably be more like it.
