Tasting notes
The 2023 Musigny Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru, which we tasted from a variety of sub-parcels, is very promising, mingling aromas of dark berries and cherries with notions of orange zest, rose petals, incense and iris. Medium to full-bodied, cool and layered, with a rich core of fruit framed by ultra-refined tannins, it's suave and harmonious, with a long, fragrant finish. This accomplished Musigny only confirms that de Vogüé is performing on a high level today.

65 ares (1.61 acres) divided in two lots: one-third in Grand Musigny in the northern sector, two-thirds in the southerly Petit Musigny section. 15% new oak. 8–9 barrels produced. Cask sample. Pale gold. Dry with a quite grippy tannic character. Apple, pear and vineyard peach with a distinct flinty note. A very individual wine with a dry, salty, finish. (MH)
I tasted the 2023 Musigny Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru both as components from the seven different cuvées that make the final blend and as an approximation of the final blend itself. This has exquisite delineation on the nose: blackberry, raspberry, crushed stone and touches of undergrowth—very harmonious. The palate is medium-bodied, tightly wound and linear, with a sense of symmetry on the entry. But of all the Musigny tasted from barrel in 2023, this has perhaps the most nascent freshness, tension and complexity on the finish. A sense of completeness. Outstanding.
