Domaine Comte Georges de Vogue - Musigny Grand Cru Vieilles Vignes - 2014

While highly complex this is cool to the point of only grudgingly revealing a strikingly layered combination of violets, rose petals, sandalwood, anise, clove, plum and dark currant scents. This is a big and overtly muscular wine with broad-shouldered and admirably concentrated flavors yet for all of the impressive size, weight and volume, the massively long finish is serene, even Zen-like. 2014 is a relatively seductive and forward vintage for this storied wine that I appreciate that calling a wine forward when it will likely need 20 years to fully mature is a relative concept! 93-96 Points Allen Meadows, Burghound
