Musigny 1990 Comte de Vogue

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (96)

This wine demands another 6-7 years of cellaring. Oddly, about three years ago it was giving signs of maturing quickly, but it has now completely shut down. The Bordeaux-like, saturated dense ruby/purple color is followed by a tight-fisted nose and flavors of black fruits, underbrush, minerals, smoke, and new oak. Although extremely concentrated, the wine is broodingly backward, and not fun to drink ... yet. This loaded effort should prove to be one of the longest-lived red Burgundies made in the last twenty years.

Winespectator (90)

Solid and chewy in texture, with firm tannins and layers of black cherry, mushroom and orange-peel flavor, getting really decadent on the long finish. Has a sense of grandeur, even if some of the flavors are funky.
