The 2008 Musigny Vieilles Vignes is a wine I could smell all day. The explosive bouquet literally jumps from the glass, followed by deep, beautifully delineated layers of fruit. This shows terrific concentration and depth, dazzling finesse, and a nicely pointed, direct finish. It is an eternal wine. Anticipated maturity: 2023-2048. Score: 97 -Wine Advocate. This is also quite reserved at present with an elegant, airy, cool and pure nose that is highly complex as it offers red currant, plum, black cherry and a panoply of floral and spice notes, in particular violet and anise, before marrying seamlessly into mineral-driven and alluring mineral-driven big-bodied flavors that explode on the powerful and almost painfully intense finish that delivers genuinely stunning length.
