Jacques-Frederic Mugnier - Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 'Clos de la Marechale' - 2022

This is the ripest wine in the range yet the dark berry fruit and distinctly earth-suffused nose remains nicely fresh. The succulent, round and caressing but punchy medium-bodied flavors deliver solid length on the mildly warm and rustic finale that is both firm and complex. Some patience will be necessary. This is also very good. 92 Points, Outstanding Allen Meadows, Burghound
