Tasting notes
The 2007 Clos de Vougeot-Musigni is another harmonious wine from Gros. Sweet red fruit, flowers and anise are some of the nuances that emerge from this mid-weight Burgundy. The Clos de Vougeot-Musigni has great persistence and terrific poise. Hints of tobacco and cedar add complexity on the close. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2022.

Palish medium red. Less fruity and more soil-inflected nose hints at earth and smoke. Tighter and less forthcoming than the Echezeaux, with structure currently dominating underlying fruit. This has a tighter grain to it, and more inner-mouth energy. A firm edge of acidity and a solid tannic spine gives this wine some cellaring potential. But this one, too, shares the decadent quality of the foregoing 2007s at this address.
Good deep red. Captivating aromas of plum, black cherry, mocha, minerals and smoked meat. Lush, sweet and rich, with a high-pH saline quality leavened by energetic minerality. Manages to be both thick and light on its feet. Here the tannins are nicely covered by ripe red fruits.
