2006 Domaine Georges Mugneret Gibourg, Vosne-Romanee 1x750ml

Vinous 88+

Bright red. Red fruits, minerals and menthol on the slightly medicinal nose. Spicy, lively and tight; showing less fruit today than the 2007 but there’s good sweetness here. Finishes with dusty tannins and very good length. [Stephen Tanzer, 01/03/2009]

The Mugneret 2006 Vosne Romanee displays the bell-clear, chiseled-edge of fresh red fruits and saline, crystalline minerality for which this estate’s wines are justly renowned. Hints of herbal concentrate and of vanilla and caramel from barrel segue nicely into the fruit on a soothingly polished palate, and this finishes with a very sunny, ripe disposition and welcome sense of lift. Plan to enjoy it over the next 4-6 years. [David Schildknecht, 12/01/2009]

Anticipated maturity: 2009-2015
