"The 2000 Musigny from Monsieur Mugnier is a beautiful bottle of wine that is in the midst of blossoming and setting sail for the stars. The bouquet is deep, pure and magical, as it offers up a classic mélange of cherries, strawberries, blood orange, roses, lovely minerality and coffee. On the palate the wine is medium-full, long, pure and transparent, with lovely intensity of flavor, an excellent core of fruit, superb focus and balance and a very long, meltingly tannic and tangy finish that closes with great grip and a profound expression of terroir. I would give this superb wine just another year or two to really reach its apogee, and then drink it over the ensuing twenty years."
